Tips:
1
Cooking times may vary. Depending on your taste
preference, leave the waffle in longer for darker,
crispier waffles or shorter for light and fluffy
waffles. Different waffle batters will also cook up
differently.
2
When preparing waffle batter, do not over mix or
waffles will be tough. Stir batter only until large
lumps of dry ingredients disappear.
3
The optimal amount of batter to produce a
full-shaped waffle, without overflowing, will vary
with different waffle batters. Pouring batter from a
measuring cup will help you gauge how much
batter to use each time. Fill bottom grid of waffler
with enough batter to cover peak areas of the grid.
4
For more evenly shaped waffles, spread thick
batters to outer edge of grid, using a heat proof
rubber spatula or other non-metallic utensil before
closing lid.
5
Cake-based waffles, such as the Chocolate Waffles
are more tender than regular waffles, and may
require more care when removing from waffler.
you may want to break these waffles into halves or
quarters before removing. Use a spatula to support
waffles when removing from the waffler.
6
To retain crispness, move baked waffles to a wire
cooling rack to prevent steam from accumulating
underneath.
7
When serving several waffles at one time, keep
waffles hot and crisp by placing on a rack in a
preheated 200°F oven until ready to serve.
8
Already cooled waffles can be re-warmed and
re-crisped, individually, by returning to hot waffler.
Set Waffle Temperature Control to low. Place
waffle on grid so grooves match up; close lid and
heat for 1 to 2 minutes, watching carefully to
prevent burning.
9
Baked waffles freeze well. Cool completely on wire
rack. Store in plastic freezer bag or in covered
container, separating waffles with wax paper.
Reheat frozen waffles in toaster oven, oven or
toaster until hot and crisp.
