Using Your Waffle Baker
1
Plug into to a 120 volt outlet. Turn the Toggle Switch to the ON
position. The Red Power Light will illuminate and 2:00 will appear in
the display indicating that the Waffle Baker has power and is starting
the preheating cycle. The red power light and heating elements will
remain on until you unplug the unit or turn the Toggle Switch to the
OFF position.
2
Always preheat the waffle bake in the closed position. When the
waffle baker has finished preheating the blue READY light will
illuminate and you will hear 4 short beeps. It will take approximately
5 minutes for the plates to preheat.
3
Before the first waffle of the day, use a pastry brush to lightly coat
the top and bottom waffle grids with vegetable oil or shortening.
Cooking spray will also work well for this purpose.
4
Press the COLOR button to cycle through the time settings of 1:00,
1:30, 2:00, 2:30, 3:00, and 4:00 minutes for desired browning..
5
If a darker waffle is desired press the CRISP button and the blue LED
light surrounding the CRISP button will illuminate.
NOTE:
Pressing the CRISP button will toggle the CRISP feature on or off
for each set time. For instance, if you desire 3 minutes, press the COLOR
button until 3:00 is displayed, then press the CRISP button.
6
Ladle just enough batter to fill the lower waffle plate so that the
peak areas of the plate are covered (about 1 cup). If necessary, use
a spatula to spread the batter into the corners of grid.
7
Close the baker and press the START button. The countdown timer
will begin to countdown. The waffle baker will automatically rotate
180’ after a 8-10 second delay to allow the batter to rise on the
bottom plate. The READY light will cycle on and off during the
baking process.
NOTE:
At anytime during the baking process you can cancel the timer
and have the Waffle Baker rotate back to the original position by
pressing the RESET button.
8
When the selected time is up, you will hear 4 beeps and the Blue
Ready Light will illuminate. The waffle baker will rotate back 180’ to
the starting position.
9
Lift the top housing by the black cool-touch handle. Do not touch
any metal surfaces of the waffle baker housing.

Introduction
Walking into a home filled with the warm smells of coffee brewing,
sausage patties sizzling in the pan, and waffles baking makes one feel
instantly comfortable. For many people, breakfast is the most important
meal of the day, and often the only hot one eaten. It would be difficult to
dash out of the house with nothing more than a doughnut under the
belt if there was a tempting bowl of granola or a stack of hot waffles
waiting on the table.
For me, brunch is a pleasurable way to entertain on any given Saturday,
Sunday or holiday. Served late morning into early afternoon, it combines
breakfast and lunch and is a leisurely experience, casual and easy. Since
my kitchen at home is warm and inviting, I find my friends like to
congregate in the kitchen.
Usually, I prepare a few dishes, set them out on the buffet, and allow
people to help themselves. If I’m making waffles, I have the batter ready,
the Waffle Baker preheated, and spoon the batter out on demand.
Sometimes I fold berries into the batter, other times I fill my nicest bowl
with an assortment of warm poached fruit.
And to make the brunch even more festive, I like to serve chilled
champagne poured over fresh orange juice or peach juice.
