Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder, soda, salt, and malted milk powder into a medium bowl.

In another bowl, whisk the egg, vanilla, and buttermilk together. Stir in the butter and mix well.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir until incorporated. Do not overmix. If the batter is too thick, add a little more buttermilk.

Heat the waffle maker until hot. Then grease it with cooking spray. Pour about 1 1/2 tablespoons of batter into the maker, spreading it out to the edges of the star. Close the lid and cook for about a minute. Then open it to see if the waffle is brown. If it is not brown, cook it for a few more seconds. If it is brown, use a silicone cooking utensil to remove it.

Melt butter in a medium-sized saucepan. Add the brown sugar, buttermilk, and salt. Bring to a boil and stir for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the sugar is dissolved.

Remove the pan from the heat and add the vanilla and baking soda. Stir. The mixture will foam from the baking soda.

Pour the syrup over the waffles. Garnish with fruit and serve immediately.
