For the syrup: Whisk together the maple syrup, cinnamon, salt and cayenne in a small saucepan.

Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat and whisk until the cinnamon is dissolved, about 1 minute.

Remove from the heat and stir in the orange zest.
4
Cover and keep warm.

For the waffles: Preheat a waffle maker to medium-high.

Pour the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture and gently stir until just incorporated (it's ok if there are lumps).
9
Lightly brush the top and bottom of the waffle iron with oil.
10
Fill each section about three-quarters of the way full (there should still be some waffle iron showing).

Close and cook until the waffles are golden brown and slightly crisp, 6 to 10 minutes.
