minutesOne of my dearest friends shared this recipe with me and all I can say is WINNER!!! This is so easy to do and you can make them the night before. Brilliant. I have made overnight waffles before and they are good BUT this is the BEST!!! I love that it is easy and you can make it 1-2 days before. These waffles are delicious and taste perfect with whatever your favorite topping is: syrup, powdered sugar, whipped cream, creme friache, or jam. I serve these with mixed berries and wonderful syrup from Runamok Syrup Company. Make these for friends and family, everyone will want more so double it.
