TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS
Recipe tips
• Do not over-mix the batter. A few lumps
are fine. Smooth batters produce tough,
heavy waffles.
• If refrigerated in a tightly sealed
container, most batters will remain
fresh for one or two days. Stored
batter will usually thicken, so you
may have to add a little water or
milk and re-mix the batter before
using. Cold batter may require
additional baking time to reach
desired brownness.
• Waffles made from low-fat recipes can
be difficult to remove. If your waffles
tend to stick to the waffle plates, add
a little more butter or oil to the recipe.
Do not coat the waffle plates with
spray-on oils or shortenings, they will
produce a gummy build-up that will be
difficult to remove.
To change the baking time and continue
2
baking, use the timer adjustment dial
to change the baking time, then press
the START button to begin a new timer
countdown.
• Recipes that include butter, oil, or
eggs will produce crispier, more
easily browned waffles than recipes
without those ingredients.
• For exceptionally light waffles, try this:
when the recipe calls for eggs, separate
the eggs and blend the yolk into the batter.
In a separate bowl, beat the whites until
fluffy, but not stiff, and carefully fold the
whites into the batter just before baking.
• For a hearty, full-grain flavor, try using
whole grain flour in place of white flour.
• Buttermilk powder is a good substitute
for fresh buttermilk in waffle recipes and
is easy to keep on hand. Use powder
according to package directions.
