Steps:
- Place cherries, sugar, kirsch (if using), lemon juice, and zest (if using) in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat and bring to a simmer; cook, stirring occasionally, until cherries are tender, about 15 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer cherries to a bowl.
- Continue cooking remaining mixture in pan over medium heat until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Pour over cherries; let cool. Store in an airtight container in refrigerator for up to 1 day.
Tips
- For the best results, use fresh, ripe cherries. Frozen cherries can also be used, but they should be thawed and patted dry before using.
- The poaching liquid can be adjusted to taste. For a sweeter sauce, add more honey or sugar. For a more tart sauce, add more lemon juice or vinegar.
- The cherries can be poached ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving.
- The waffles can also be made ahead of time and stored in the freezer for up to 2 months. Reheat in a toaster or oven before serving.
- Serve the waffles with the poached cherries and a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
