COOKING SURFACES

REMOVABLE PLATES

Before First Use

Before first use, remove all packaging materials and thoroughly clean the Treat Maker.

DO NOT lift the Cover with your arm positioned over the Removable Plates. They are hot and may cause injury.

Never touch the Removable Plates or the inside of the Treat Maker while it is plugged in and preheating or when it has not fully cooled.

Always lift and lower from the right side using the Cover Handle to avoid hitting the Release Tab.

Using the Treat Maker

1. Choose two Removable Plates for cooking. Install the Removable Plates by sliding them into the Insertion Slots located at the top and bottom of the Treat Maker (photo A).
2. Each Removable Plate is labeled either "Top" or
   "Bottom." Slide each plate into its respective slot.
   
   TOP
   
   BOTTOM
   Push down at the corner where the plate is labeled "Top" or "Bottom" until there is a slight click indicating that the plate is properly in place (photo B).
   
3. To begin cooking, place the appliance on a stable and dry surface. Plug the cord into a power outlet. The Indicator Light will illuminate (photo C) signaling that the Treat Maker is heating up.
4. Once the Removable Plates reach the optimal cooking temperature, the Indicator Light will automatically shut off (photo D) indicating that it's ready to begin cooking.
   
5. Carefully lift the Cover by the Cover Handle and lightly grease both Removable Plates with a small amount of cooking oil (photo E).
6. Pour batter onto the bottom Removable Plate (photo F) and close the Cover.
   

NOTE:
Aerosol cooking sprays often contain soy lecithin, an additive that can cause nonstick surfaces to become sticky and hard to clean over time.

To ensure the longevity of your product, avoid aerosols and instead grease cooking surfaces using a silicone basting brush or a non-aerosol spray bottle.

7. Once treats are cooked to preference, carefully remove from the bottom Removable Plate with a heat-resistant nylon or silicone cooking utensil (photo G).
8. When finished cooking, unplug the Treat Maker and allow it to cool before moving, cleaning, or ejecting the Removable Plates (photo H).
   

Do not use metal utensils to remove or place food on the Removable Plates as this will damage their nonstick coating.

9. To remove the Removable Plates, press the corresponding Release Tabs on the side of the Handle [there are Release Tabs at the bottom (photo I) and at the top (photo J)].
   

Do not attempt to remove the Removable Plates until they have completely cooled.

PIPING BAG INSTRUCTIONS FOR MINI DONUT PLATE

For best results when adding batter to donut molds, use a piping bag for added precision. When a piping bag isn't available, a Ziploc® bag can serve as a substitute.

To use a Ziploc® bag as a piping bag, take a large, clean Ziploc® bag and ensure it is completely dry.

NOTE: Fluted Ziploc® bags cannot be used for this purpose, only bags with straight 90° angled corners are suitable.

1. Find a large cup at least the size of a standard pint glass. Insert one bottom corner of the Ziploc® bag into the glass such that the bag lines the glass (photo A).
2. Carefully pour or spoon batter into the bag. Only fill the bag about halfway to ensure there is enough space to grip the bag while piping (photo B).
   
3. Grasp the excess plastic of the bag and pull it out of the glass. Make a fist around the excess plastic to grip the bag, squeezing to push all batter down into the corner of the bag and to push out any excess air from the top of the bag (photo C).
4. Use scissors to cut a small tip off of the corner of the Ziploc® bag. Start with a small cut and gradually increase the size if needed, depending on the thickness of the batter (photo D).
   
5. Hold the bag over each donut mold and gently squeeze the bag to pipe batter into each mold. For each mini donut, start from the top and pipe in a circular motion. Fill each mold about three-quarters full. For even cooking and best results, fill the middle donut mold last (photo E).
   

To ensure even browning, carefully flip the donuts with a toothpick midway through cooking.

Cleaning & maintenance

Always allow the appliance to cool completely before moving, cleaning, or storing. Do not submerge appliance in water or any other liquids. Never use abrasive cleaning agents to clean the appliance as this may damage the Treat Maker.

In order to keep the Treat Maker in pristine working order, thoroughly clean the appliance after each use. This will prevent the build-up of food or oil.

• Before removing the Removable Plates and after use, unplug the Treat Maker to allow it to cool completely.
• Allow the Removable Plates to cool before touching or running them under water.
• The Removable Plates are dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended to preserve the nonstick cooking surface.
• To hand wash the Removable Plates, use a damp, soapy cloth to wipe down. Thoroughly rinse the cloth and wipe again. If any food remains, apply a small amount of cooking oil and let sit for 5-10 minutes. Then scrub the Removable Plates with a sponge or soft-bristled brush to dislodge food. Use a damp, soapy cloth to wipe down Removable Plates. Rinse the cloth thoroughly and wipe again. If food still remains, apply cooking oil once more and let sit for a few hours before scrubbing again.
• Thoroughly dry the Treat Maker before storing.
