TIPS TO MAKE
PERFECT WAFFLES
• Setting #1 will produce the lightest color
waffles. Setting #5 will produce the darkest
color waffles. Experiment to determine which
setting produces the best waffle color for you.
• For evenly filled waffles, pour the batter onto
the center of the lower grid and spread out
evenly to the edges. The entire lower grid
should be filled.
• We recommend using 2 cups of batter
to fill the lower grid.
NOTE:
For thinner
batters, both boxed and homemade, we
recommend using a scant 2 cups of batter
and spreading it evenly among the four waffle
grids.
• Waffles are best when made to order, but
baked waffles may be kept warm in a 200°F
oven. Place them in a baking pan or wrap in
foil while in the oven. Waffles wrapped in foil
may lose their crispiness.
• Baked waffles may be frozen. Allow to cool
completely, then place in plastic food storage
bag. Use waxed paper to keep waffles sepa-
rated. Reheat in a toaster or toaster oven
when ready to eat.
SUGGESTED TOPPINGS
Fruit syrups, warm fruit compote, fresh berries,
chopped fruit, yogurt, chopped nuts, powdered
sugar, whipped cream, ice cream or chocolate
sauce.

Waffle Mix
Having a batch of this mix at the ready will
allow you to make one batch of four waffles
at a time. Just prepare as much or as little as
you need. Our version is much healthier
than purchased mixes.
Makes about 7 cups of mix, enough to make
16 waffles
5 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
1 cup wheat germ
1 cup buttermilk powder*
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
3 tablespoons baking powder
2¼ teaspoons kosher salt
1½ teaspoons baking soda
¾ teaspoon cream of tartar
1. Using a whisk, combine all ingredients
thoroughly in a large mixing bowl.
2. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry
place for up to 6 months. You can store in
the refrigerator for ultimate freshness.
*Buttermilk powder is available in most gro-
cery stores. If you cannot find it, substituting
nonfat dry milk is acceptable, but the results
will not be as moist.
