For the coconut syrup:

Add the coconut milk to a sauce pan along with the cornstarch. Whisk together until cornstarch is dissolved. Whisk in the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil over medium heat. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
For the waffles:

Whisk together the flour baking powder, salt and sugar in a bowl.

Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and whisk together just until combined. Stir in the melted butter. Then fold in 3/4 cup coconut.
