Notes

This recipe was tested using a Belgium-style waffle iron. It will make 4 large Belgium waffles or 8 smaller waffles. The batter can easily be doubled as needed. 
Storage: Wrap cooled waffles in plastic and store in the fridge for 5 days or freezer for 3 months. To reheat frozen waffles, just place them in a toaster, and cook until heated through and crispy.
