After an hour has passed, preheat your waffle maker on medium high heat.
At this point, add your ¼ teaspoon of baking powder into your batter and mix well.
¼ teaspoon baking powder
When your waffle iron is pre-heated, scoop ⅓ cup of your batter into each of the waffle wells.
Wait 5 seconds after adding your batter and then close the waffle maker to cook the waffles.
Cook your waffles until golden brown.
Once your waffles are done, remove them from the waffle maker and place them on a cooling rack.
Continue to do this until all of your batter is used up.
