Preparation

Step 1

Instructions

Place flour, yeast, salt and sugar into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Turn on low speed to combine.

Add butter, milk and eggs; increase speed to medium until smooth, about 30 seconds. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

The next morning, preheat your waffle iron (on medium heat stovetop) or electric waffle maker. Use a pastry brush (or a wadded up piece of paper towel) to scoop up about a teaspoon of soft butter; spread into all the pockets of the waffle maker.

Add about ¾ cup of batter to the centre of the iron and immediately flip it over, if using stove-top. Cook until brown on both sides (about 5 minutes per side for stove-top – but check frequently – variable time with electric machines, follow your waffle maker’s instructions).
