Preparation
Step 1
In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the yeast, warm water and 1 Tbsp of sugar and stir to dissolve the yeast. Let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes. Add the remaining 3 Tbsp sugar, the milk, eggs, butter, salt, and flour. Fit the mixer with the flat beater and beat on medium speed until smooth, 3 to 5 minutes. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 12 hours or up to overnight.
Preheat the waffle maker on medium-high heat. Preheat an oven to 200 degrees.
Using a rubber spatula, stir the baking powder into the batter until well blended, about 1 minute (the batter will deflate slightly).
Pour about 2/3 cup of the batter into the center of the waffle maker and close the lid. Cook the waffle until golden brown and crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the waffle to a wire rack set on a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Repeat to cook the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles hot with maple syrup.
