Tips to Make Perfect Waffles, Suggested Toppings

TIPS TO MAKE

PERFECT WAFFLES

We recommend setting #3 for golden brown waffles.

If you prefer crisper, darker waffles, increase the browning control to setting #4 or 5.

For evenly filled waffles, pour the batter onto the center of the lower grid and close the cover.

We recommend using 1/2 cup batter per waffle for evenly filled waffles.

Waffles are best when made to order, but baked waffles may be kept warm in a 200°F 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 a toaster or toaster oven when ready to use.

SUGGESTED TOPPINGS

Maple syrup, fruit syrups Warm fruit compote, fruit sauce

Fresh berries, chopped fruit, chopped nuts Powdered sugar

Whipped cream, ice cream, sorbet Chocolate sauce

Fruited yogurt

You can’t beat the taste of homemade waffles. Freeze the extras to use when time is scarce.

2cups all-purpose flour

2tablespoons sugar

1tablespoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt

13/4 cups reduced fat milk

6tablespoons vegetable oil

2large eggs

Place ingredients in a large mixing bowl and combine until well blended and smooth. Let batter sit 5 minutes before using. Preheat your Cuisinart® Classic Waffle Maker on setting #3 *(green indicator light will be illuminated when preheated).

Pour 1/2 cup batter onto the center of the lower grid; spread evenly using a heat-proof spatula. Close cover of waffle maker. Indicator light will turn red. When light turns green again, waffle is ready. Open cover and carefully remove baked waffle. Repeat with remaining batter. For best results, serve immediately. However, you may keep waffles warm in a 200°F oven until ready to serve.

*We recommend using setting #3 to achieve a golden brown baked waffle. Adjust the browning control if you prefer lighter or darker waffles.
