In a small bowl, combine the water and cornstarch. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, bring the remaining water, sugar, and cherries to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
Stir in the water-cornstarch mixture. Simmer for an additional 2 minutes and remove from heat.
Allow the sauce to cool slightly before adding to a blender and processing until smooth.
Store the sauce in an airtight container for up to 1 month. Remove it from the fridge and reach room temperature before serving.
Make the waffle batter:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, yogurt, vanilla, butter, and honey until smooth.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until the batter is smooth and there are no clumps- do not over mix.
Cook the waffles:
Lightly grease a preheated waffle maker with cooking spray. Pour enough batter to fill the bottom plates.
Close and cook the waffle according to the manufacturer's directions or until the waffles are golden brown.
Remove the waffle from the waffle iron and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve:
Serve the waffles with homemade cherry syrup.
Notes
