Notes
You can customize the flavor by adding a little nutmeg or substituting the vanilla extract with almond extract.
For a fun twist, add chocolate chips or chopped nuts to the batter before dipping the bread.
Leftover waffles can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat them in a toaster for a quick breakfast option.
