A must try if you have never experienced the heaven that is found within!
2 tbsp active dry yeast (2 packets)
1-1/3 cups warm buttermilk
2 cups AP flour
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 egg lightly beaten
1 stick butter melted
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch of salt
1 cup pearl sugar (aka hail sugar, or lightly crush sugar cubes into smaller chunks)
Extra flour (for sprinkling)
Directions:
Melt butter in a saucepan, add in buttermilk and yeast (mix should be warm to touch, do not overheat or you will kill the yeast). Add in vanilla, egg, and granulated sugar, and whisk to combine. Mix dry ingredients together in a bowl. Add wet ingredients to dry in small amounts and combine to form dough. Add in pearled sugar last, working it into the dough with your hands if necessary. Cover dough and allow to rise for 30 min. Can chill for 30 min or use straight away. Shape dough into roughly 10 balls; flatten slightly with palm of hand (if dough is wet enough can pour directly into waffle iron), and place each into a well greased waffle iron on medium heat. Cook for 3-4 minutes, careful not to overcook or pearl sugar will burn. Serve warm with powdered sugar on top. No syrup, these aren't Belgian waffles!

Note: sugar will caramelize as it cooks and can make quite a mess of your waffle iron. if you are lucky enough to have an iron with removable plates, it makes for an easy wash. otherwise, proceed with warning! ;)
