3 tsp active dry yeast,
cup whole milk warmed to 110-115 degrees,
1/3 cup water warmed to 110-115 degrees,
4 Cups flour,
two Substantial eggs,
4 Tbsp brown sugar,
1 tsp baking powder,
1 tsp salt,
1 cup butter (2sticks),

1 cups Belgian Pearl sugar ("Lars Own" is definitely the easiest to locate in the US)
For cinnamon liege waffles: add in 2-3 Tbsp ground cinnamon
How to Make
Inside a mixer, add warm milk, warm water, yeast, and 1 cups of flour and blend for 3-5 minutes till mixture turns with smooth and sticky consistency.
Set aside mixture in a mixer bowl for around 60 minutes. This will rise considerably within the bowl.

After 60 minutes, add in vanilla and honey into the mixture/dough. Mix completely for five minutes. Reserve for around 4 hours at room temperature to enable perfect rising of the dough.
Right after four hours, press the dough down, removing all the gases. Put dough in the baking pan or leave it rested inside the mixing bowl and then cover with butcher paper. Keep dough in refrigerator overnight.
The following day remove dough from the refrigerator and add in the pearl sugar. Knead manually by hand or work with a dough hook.
If you wish to incorporate cinnamon, fold in cinnamon right now though make sure it's done after you've added the pearl sugar.
Divide the dough equally into ten portions and shape each into ball. Just before cooking, allow dough balls to sit together with the pearl sugar for around 90 minutes
Cook preferably in a liege waffle iron at 365-370 degrees temperature for 2-3 minutes or only until waffles are golden brown with caramelized pear sugar within the surface
Note: If you're using a waffle iron which has a slightly increased temperature of 400 degrees, reduce temperature to 300 degrees just after you have located the dough balls into the scorching iron. This may keep the pearl sugar from burning.
