Raised Waffles

½ c warm water

1 pkg. yeast

2 c warm milk

½ c butter

1 t salt

1 T sugar

2 c flour

2 eggs

¼ t baking soda

Use a large mixing bowl. (Batter will double in volume.) Put water in mixing bowl and sprinkle in the yeast. Dissolve for 5 minutes. Add milk, butter, salt, sugar, and flour to the yeast mixture and beat until smooth and blended. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let it stand overnight at room temp. Just before cooking waffles, beat in the eggs and soda and stir until well mixed. The batter will be very thin. Pour about ½ to ¼ c batter into a very hot waffle iron. Bake until they are golden and crisp
