How to Make Best Overnight Waffles

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 ½ cups milk, ½ cup melted unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  2. Cover the bowl and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
  3. In the morning, gently whisk in 2 large eggs.
  4. Heat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

  6. Serve immediately and enjoy! Top with your favorite fruits, whipped cream, syrup, or chocolate chips.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
