Tips for baking waffles
•
Do not pour too much batter as excess batter might drip out of the plates during baking.
•
Ideal baking time depends on many factors, like batter amount, batter thickness, ingredients, etc.
•
Browning level also depends on many factors, like batter ingredients, baking time, room temperature,
etc. Sugary batter, for example, will turn brownish faster.
•
Avoid opening the plate repeatedly during baking, otherwise the waffles may stick on the plates or
not bake at all.
