Step by Step Method
Step 1
Stir together yeast, warm water, and 1 teaspoon sugar in a small bowl and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. (If mixture doesn't foam, discard and start over with new yeast.)

Step 3
Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar into a large bowl.
Step 4

Step 6
Refrigerate, covered, for at least 8 hours.
Step 7
COOK THE WAFFLES: Bring batter to room temperature, then stir in pecans.
Step 8
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 250°F and preheat waffle iron.
Step 9
Brush waffle iron lightly with vegetable oil, Pam spray and spoon batter into hot waffle iron, using 1/2 cup batter for each 4-inch-square Belgian waffle or 1/4 cup batter for each 4-inch-square standard waffle and spread batter evenly.
Step 10
Cook according to manufacturer's instructions, then transfer directly onto oven rack to keep warm. (Don't stack waffles; they will stay crisp if kept in one layer.)
