Liege Sugar Waffles
2/3 Cup Water
1 Tablespoon Yeast
1/4 Cup Sugar
6 Eggs
4 Cup All Purpose Flour
1/4 Teaspoon Salt
1 pound Butter, melted
2 Tablespoon Vanilla Ext.
2 Cup Pearl Sugar
1) Combine water, yeast, and sugar in mixing bowl fitted with the paddle attachment. Scale out remaining ingredients.
2) Add eggs and vanilla slowly mixing between each addition. Add flour and salt and mix on low just until ingredients begin to come together. Mix will be dry.
3) Add melted butter slowly in three additions, incorporating fully between each. Once incorporated cover and let rest for 45 minutes.
4) When dough is almost through resting and has doubled in size preheat waffle iron to medium heat. You can also use a cast iron waffle maker on the stove over medium heat.
5) Once dough is ready add pearl sugar to batter and mix by hand. This will deflate the dough and it will be ready to cook.
6) Using a scoop or your hand place in a hot waffle iron and cook on medium heat 2-3 minutes until crispy and golden on the outside. The sugar causes these waffles to crisp and get lots of color leaving bits of pearl sugar on the inside. Serve immediately.
