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.
We recommend setting #3 for golden brown
waffles.
• We recommend using the provided measuring
cup. Depending on the thickness of the batter,
you may be using between ¾ and 1 cup of
batter per waffle. Always err on less rather than
more, as batter tends to expand while cooking.
• Do not overfill the waffle maker – it should not
be filled to the top of the waffle grid. Always
use the provided measuring cup as a guide.
• Most batters should be poured through the
fill spout in a steady stream. Thicker batters,
however, should be added a bit more carefully,
being sure that the batter in the spout drips into
the waffle grid before adding more.
• Batters should be whisked well to be sure there
are no lumps. If the batter is not flowing easily
through the spout, it is too thick. Either whisk
to a smoother batter, or add additional liquid,
1 tablespoon at a time.
• Excess batter will rise into the fill spout creating
an extra piece. This extra piece may be easily
removed for serving.
• Looking for an easy way to add your favorite
flavors? Substitute a small amount of the flour
for your favorite finely ground nuts (pecans,
walnuts, almonds, etc.). Do you prefer sweet
berries? Swirl up to ¼ cup of a fruit jam into
the prepared waffle batter prior to cooking.
Not only will the waffles taste delicious, but they
will also have a beautiful color to them.
• If adding mix-ins to the batter, they should not
be any larger than a mini chocolate chip.
• Waffles are best when made to order, but
baked waffles may be kept warm in a 200°F
oven. Place them on a rack fitted into a baking
pan or loosely cover in foil while in the oven.
• Baked waffles may be frozen. Allow to cool
completely, then wrap well in plastic wrap
and place in a plastic food storage bag.
Use waxed paper to keep waffles separated.
Reheat in a toaster or toaster oven when ready
to eat. Waffles can be stored in the freezer for
up to 2 months.
• The provided measuring cup rests neatly on the
inside of the batter bowl for clean countertops.
