In this recipe, gluten-free waffles with a delicate yeast flavor get a crispy and crunchy outside, but are melt-in-your-mouth soft on the inside. Start them the night before.

Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat a waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions.
Step 2
Approximately 9 hours or the night before making waffles, stir together warm water, honey, and yeast in a small bowl until well combined. Let sit until bubbly, 5 to 10 minutes.
Step 3
Combine milk and olive oil in a large bowl. Add 1 1/2 cups gluten-free flour, 1/4 cup at a time, mixing well between each addition, to create a thick but pourable batter. Add more flour if batter is too thin, 1/8 cup at a time.
Step 4
Stir yeast mixture into batter until just combined. Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and leave on the kitchen counter for 8 hours to overnight; batter will double or even triple in volume, so be sure the bowl is large enough.
Step 5
When you are ready to make waffles, mix beaten egg and salt into batter in the bowl until incorporated.
Step 6
Cook about 1/4 cup batter in the preheated waffle iron until waffle is golden brown and the iron stops steaming, about 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
