Waffle Baker Tips
• Recipes that call for eggs to be
separated and the whites beaten will
produce very light and airy waffles.
However, if you are short on time, this
step can be skipped. Just slightly beat
eggs with a fork and add to the recipe.
• Most waffle recipes call for oil OR
melted butter. To save time, use oil
instead of butter. The butter simply
makes a slightly richer-tasting waffle.
• Most waffle batter can be made the
night before and refrigerated to save
time in the morning.
• Most waffle recipes can be poured
directly onto the nonstick waffle
grids. Use a cooking spray for
dessert waffles or those with a lot of
sugar. If your waffles start to stick,
the grids may need to be scrubbed
with a nylon brush to remove any
cooked-on food particles.
• Waffles can be made ahead of time
and kept warm in a 200ºF oven. Or
let them cool and pack in an airtight
container; store in refrigerator or
freezer. They can be reheated in a
microwave oven, a toaster oven, or
regular oven.
• Use waffles for lunch and dinner.
