The consistency of your batter will effect the end result. A slightly thick batter, one that pours slowly,
some say like slow moving lava, works the best. If the batter pours freely, add more flour to thicken.
Regardless of the recipe, the WafflePro
the waffle iron without risk of overflow. Use a pitcher, a measuring cup or ladle to pour batter onto
the WafflePro grids.

When making waffle batter, add milk slowly and mix with a power mixer or by hand until the right
consistency is reached. Blend just until the desired consistency is reached. You may not need to use
all of the milk or liquid called for in a recipe. If you add too much liquid, simply stir in additional flour
(or dry mix) to thicken the batter.
Some recipes may call for separating the eggs, beating the whites and folding them in at the end
of the mix. This step gives a slightly lighter waffle with a less uniform texture but it is not essential.
Whole eggs may be used.
Always preheat the WafflePro
getting started, otherwise set it to your own preference. Read the instructions beginning on Page 5
before making your first waffles.
Remember when the green light and beeper signal that the waffle is "Ready", you can briefly lift the
lid to check the degree of browning and, if desired, close the lid to bake the waffle for another 20 to
30 seconds for more crispness.
Because the WafflePro
able to prepare waffles about as fast as they can be eaten. Waffles taste best "hot off the griddle" but
you might let them cool on a wire rack for 20 to 30 seconds before serving. This gives the waffle a
chance to release some steam and stiffen slightly. (If a waffle is placed directly on a plate, the steam
condenses under the waffle causing the crisp exterior to soften.)

in a teaspoon or two of additional flour.
