Easy Buttermilk Waffles with Vanilla Bean Paste

Waffles make everything more fun. The word is fun to say. They are easy to make, and they make any weekend morning feel like a party. The secret to my waffles is that we use the waffle iron from Andy's grandma. It is so old, but it works really great and makes waffles the perfect size, like a Belgian waffle. 

Another great thing about making waffles is that they make your kitchen smell amazing. I used organic vanilla bean paste with this recipe because the vanilla bean specks look great in the batter.
