STORAGE

securely. For compact
storage, stand waffle iron
upright on back end with
control panel facing up.
The waffle iron has been
designed with a special
latching feature so lid stays
closed during storage.
TIPS TO MAKE
PERFECT WAFFLES
We recommend setting #3 or #4 for golden
brown waffles, either from mix or homemade.
If you prefer crisper, darker waffles, increase the
browning control.
For evenly filled waffles, pour the batter into the
centre of the lower grid and spread out evenly to
the edges. The entire lower grid should be filled.
We recommend using 1
1
2 cups (375 mL) batter
per waffle for most recipes.
Waffles are best when made to order, but pre-
baked waffles may be kept warm in a 200° F
(95°C) oven. Place in a baking pan or wrap in foil
while in the oven. Waffles wrapped in foil may
lose their crispiness.
Baked waffles may be frozen. Allow to cool
completely; then place in plastic food storage
bag. Use waxed paper to keep waffles
separated. Reheat in toaster or toaster
oven when ready to use.
