  1. To prepare cherry sauce: Combine cherries, water, honey, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens, about 1 minute. Set aside.

  2. To prepare waffles: Preheat oven to 200°F; place a large baking sheet on the center rack.

  3. Whisk whole-wheat flour (see measuring tip), cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Lightly beat eggs and brown sugar in a medium bowl. Add buttermilk, oil, and vanilla; whisk until well blended. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.

  4. Preheat a Belgian-style waffle iron. Lightly coat it with cooking spray. Add enough batter to cover about two-thirds of the surface (about 2/3 cup); distribute evenly with a spatula. Close and cook until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the waffles to the baking sheet to keep warm until ready to serve; do not stack. Repeat with the remaining batter, using more cooking spray as needed. Warm the cherry sauce over medium heat until hot and bubbling; serve with the waffles.
