Instructions
Make the brown butter: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, swirling the pan, until lightly browned, 8 to 12 minutes. Skim off any foam; set the brown butter aside.
Make the batter: Warm 1/2 cup milk in a small saucepan over low heat until it reaches about 110 degrees F.
Transfer to a large bowl and sprinkle in the yeast (do not stir). Set aside until foamy, about 5 minutes.
Whisk in 1/3 cup of the brown butter, reserving the rest for buttering the waffle iron.
Whisk in the flour, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt and the remaining 2 cups milk. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise overnight at room temperature.
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Preheat a waffle iron; brush with the reserved brown butter. Stir the eggs and baking soda into the batter. Spoon 1/2 to 1/3 cup batter into the waffle iron and cook until golden.
Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you make the rest. Top as desired.
