OVERNIGHT BELGIAN WAFFLES



Overnight Belgian Waffles image

I've always loved those big, thick, crisp waffles that you buy from street carts in Brussels. I tried to make them for years, but sadly, mine always came out thin and soggy. I finally decided to tackle the problem, and I came up with these delicious yeasty Belgian waffles. You make them almost entirely the night before, so all you have to do in the morning is stir in some eggs and heat up the waffle iron. (You'll need a special Belgian waffle maker, but these are so good, they're worth having the extra piece of equipment around.) Because this batter rises overnight, the waffles are incredibly light and flavorful. I like to serve them piled high with sliced bananas, sprinkled with toasted coconut and drizzled with warm maple syrup.

Time 8h40m

Yield 10 to 12 large waffles

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups lukewarm whole milk (90 degrees F to 100 degrees F)
1/4 pound (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted, plus extra for the waffle iron
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 extra-large eggs
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
Sliced bananas, toasted coconut, warm maple syrup and creme fraiche, for serving
1/2 cup warm water (110 degrees F to 115 degrees F)
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast, at room temperature
2 teaspoons sugar

Steps:

  • The night before, combine the water, yeast and sugar in a very large bowl (the batter will expand enormously). Allow it to stand for about 5 minutes, until the yeast dissolves and the mixture has started to foam, which tells you the yeast is active. Stir in the milk, butter, honey, vanilla and salt. Add the flour and whisk until the batter is smooth. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow it to sit overnight at a cool room temperature.
  • The next morning, heat a Belgian waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and brush the top and bottom with melted butter. Beat the eggs together with the baking soda and whisk them into the batter until combined. Pour just enough of the batter onto the hot waffle iron to cover the grids (? to 1/2 cup each, depending on your waffle maker), close and cook for 5 to 6 minutes on medium heat, until the waffles are golden brown.
  • Cut them apart with a small knife, if necessary, and remove them with a fork. Repeat the process until all of the batter has been used. Serve the waffles hot with sliced bananas, toasted coconut, maple syrup and creme fraiche and let everyone help themselves.
  • Make-Ahead Plan
  • Prepare the batter the night before. Cook the waffles up to 1 hour ahead and let sit on sheet pans at room temperature. Reheat for 10 minutes in a 350 degrees F oven, turning once.

MAKE AHEAD OATMEAL WAFFLES

These have a wonderful taste! Very cheap to make, an excellent replacement for frozen store bought waffles. Time to refrigerate is not included in prep time. You can freeze any extras if you like. To spray olive oil we have a small bottle that you fill with olive oil and pump, you can find them at a kitchen supply store for around $10. 05-07-07 Due to the fact that a lot of people are allergic to wheat, I have changed this recipe. To make original recipe just add 1/4 cup wheat flour.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of oats. This will give your waffles a more complex flavor and texture. You can use old-fashioned oats, quick-cooking oats, or steel-cut oats.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins. This is a great way to customize your waffles and make them your own. Some popular mix-ins include berries, nuts, chocolate chips, and bananas.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your waffles tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
  • Cook the waffles on a hot waffle iron. This will help them cook evenly and get a nice crispy exterior.
  • Serve the waffles immediately. Waffles are best when served hot and fresh. You can top them with butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Make-ahead oatmeal waffles are a delicious and convenient breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 months.
