1. In a large mixing bowl combine the flour, cornmeal, oat bran, sugar, active dry yeast, and salt. Add the milk, eggs, oil, and vanilla. Beat with a rotary beater or an electric mixer on medium speed for 1 minute or until batter is thoroughly combined. Cover and let batter stand for 1 hour at room temperature or until bubbly and slightly thickened. 2. To prepare waffles, stir batter. Pour onto grids of a preheated, lightly greased waffle maker. (Use either a conventional or Belgian waffle maker. Check manufacturer's directions for amount of batter to use.) Close lid. Bake waffles according to manufacturer's directions. Remove waffles from grid with a fork. Repeat with remaining waffle batter. Serve hot waffles immediately with maple syrup, if desired. Makes 12 to 14 (6-1/2-inch) waffles.
