Cooking Guidelines & Tips
Tips
•
Wearing oven mitts/gloves can
protect against accidental contact
with the heated surfaces and
escaping steam when unlatching
the appliance.
•
Fillings such as meats, chicken,
and eggs should be cooked and
frozen foods should be thawed
before using them to make
waffles. The cooking time is not
long enough and the cooking
temperature is not hot enough to
adequately cook uncooked food
or heat frozen food used for filling.
•
The first layer of batter added
should be as little as needed to
cover the waffle prongs on the
bottom of the appliance. After
sitting for a few seconds, the
batter will begin to rise a little.
Then, add your filling (centered
in the middle of the batter). The
filling should not be placed near
the edges of the batter. After the
filling is added, cover it with the
remaining batter, close the lid, and
flip the appliance.
•
If using canned fruits that are in
syrup or vegetables that are in
liquid (not pie filling), drain as
much liquid as possible before
using as a filling.
•
If your filling is a more solid food,
like diced ham, scrambled eggs,
or nuts, you can add your filling
and press it down into the batter
with the back of a spoon. Be sure
to cover the filling with the second
layer of batter.

•
The appliance can hold
approximately 1 ½ cups of batter
for an unstuffed waffle. Stuffed
waffles use less batter. The batter
should only fill to about three
quarters of the way to the top of
the inside of the appliance. Expect
the batter to expand during the
cooking process.
•
For maximum food safety, the
U.S. Department of Agriculture
recommends 165° F/74° C for
all poultry; 160° F/71° C for
ground beef, lamb, and pork;
and 145° F/63° C, with a 3-minute
resting period, for all other types
of beef, lamb, and pork. Also
review the USDA Food Safety
Standards.
•
To prevent scratching the coating,
use only nonmetallic utensils. Do
not lift or cut food in the appliance
using sharp utensils, such as forks
and knives, which can scratch the
cooking surface.
•
Do not use steel wool or other
metal pads. They could leave
coarse scratches. Always rinse
thoroughly and dry immediately
with a soft towel.
•
Never stand the appliance up
vertically while cooking. Only
stand up the appliance for
storage.
