Liège Waffles
To prepare the dough ball for Liège waffles
Mix the yeast and warm water in a bowl. Leave to rest for 15 mins.
Mix the flour, sugar, vanilla sugar, salt and yeast together in a bowl. Add the eggs and melted butter. Mix together.
Leave the dough to rest for 1 hour: it should double in volume.
Gently mix in the pearl sugar. Let stand for 10 minutes, then form balls of approximately 70 g, dusting them with flour.
Cooking of Liege waffles
Preheat the waffle iron to 180 °C for 15 minutes.
Brush the irons with a light coat of oil. Place one dough piece into each iron and close the waffle irons.
Cook on this position for 3 to 4 minutes.
Open the waffle iron and remove the waffles using a waffle pick. It is best to place the waffles on a rack to prevent them from going soft.
