Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Instant yeast
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 large Eggs
• 1.75 cups Whole milk
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Rum or bourbon (optional, for flavor)
• None Cooking spray or melted butter for waffle iron

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt until combined.

Step 2

In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and rum or bourbon (if using) until smooth.

Step 3

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking constantly until a smooth batter forms. Avoid overmixing.

Step 4

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let it rest in the refrigerator overnight (at least 8 hours). The batter will rise and develop flavor during this time.

Step 5

The next morning, preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Step 6

Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or melted butter.

Step 7

Give the batter a gentle stir to redistribute any separated ingredients.

Step 8

Ladle an appropriate amount of batter into the preheated waffle iron, spreading evenly but not overflowing.

Step 9

Cook the waffles until golden brown and crisp, about 3-5 minutes per waffle, depending on your waffle iron.

Step 10

Carefully remove the waffles and keep them warm on a baking sheet in a low oven (200°F) as you cook the remaining batter.

Step 11

Serve the waffles immediately with your favorite toppings such as fresh berries, whipped cream, maple syrup, or powdered sugar.

Step 12

Enjoy your Tipsy Overnight Belgian Waffles with a warm cup of coffee or tea for the perfect indulgent start to your day!
