I like the overnight convenience of of Crispy Overnight Waffles. How could this recipe be adapted?

Hi Mary,
We do too – that makes breakfast so much easier! Mix ingredients together, then instead of rising for 1-2 hours, cover and place in refrigerator overnight. Let batter come to room temperature before baking.
Happy baking!
