Notes

Can you make the batter in advance?

If you absolutely need to make the batter in advance, just leave the egg whites out. Whisk the egg whites just before making the waffles. Fold it to the batter that was prepared earlier.
To reheat place the waffles in the oven 350 F for 5 minutes

Do you need Belgian Waffle maker?

If you are a waffle fanatic like us, then definitely get a Belgian Waffle maker. But you can definitely use the same batter to prepare in your waffle maker. It will be crispy and light. You will not get the deep pockets.
