--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2               cups  flour
   1         tablespoon  sugar
   2          teaspoons  instant yeast
      1/2      teaspoon  salt
   1 1/2           cups  milk -- lukewarm
   1              stick  butter -- melted and cooled
      1/2      teaspoon  vanilla extract -- (optional)

   2                     eggs -- separated

Yeast-raised waffles require planning ahead, but they're absolutely 
as easy to make as their last-minute counterparts. The time spent 
resting enhances the irresistible flavor and makes the texture fluffy 
but chewy.

Total Time: 8 hours or more, largely unattended

The night before you want to serve the waffles, combine the flour, 
sugar, yeast, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in the milk, then the 
melted butter and the vanilla if you're using it, until just 
combined. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside overnight at room 
temperature. (Of course you can do this in the morning if you want 
waffles for supper.)

When you're ready to bake, brush the waffle iron lightly with oil and 
heat it. Stir the egg yolks into the batter. Beat the whites until 
they hold soft peaks, then fold them gently into the batter until 
it's relatively smooth.

Spread a ladleful or so of batter onto the waffle iron and bake until 
the waffle is done, usually 3 to 5 minutes, depending on your iron. 
Serve immediately or keep warm for a few minutes in a 200F oven. If 
you're making them ahead, store at room temperature in an airtight 
container and warm them in a 300F oven for about 5 minutes just 
before serving; or freeze them in single layers, separated by sheets 
of parchment, and reheat in a 350F oven for 8 to 10 minutes.

Whole Grain Overnight Waffles:Replace some or all of the all-purpose 
flour with any whole grain flour (whole wheat, oat, quinoa, kamut, or 
fine cornmeal, for instance) or combination of flours.
