Basic Waffles Using Packaged Mix*

There are many commercial mixes available at your favorite grocery store that are excellent and can save preparation time. The flavors will vary slightly. Use the recipe on the box or prepare the mix as follows:

2 cups prepared pancake or waffle mix

1egg

2tablespoons vegetable oil

2 tablespoons of sugar (adjust to your taste)

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup of milk Makes about 3 waffles

1.Place the waffle mix, egg, vegetable oil, sugar, and vanilla in a medium bowl. Add the cup of milk and blend all ingredients with a wire whisk until smooth and free from lumps. The batter should be thick but still pour slowly from a measuring cup. If the batter seems too thick, add more milk and if it seems to loose, add more mix, one tablespoon at a time.

2.Preheat the Belgian WafflePro® and set it at:

“Crisp Exterior/Moist Interior” @ Color Adjust 3-4 @ 2:15 minutes or “Uniform Texture” @ Color Adjust 2 - 3 @ 4:00 minutes.

3.Pour one full measured cup of waffle batter onto preheated waffle grid. Close and latch the lid. Bake until the signal indicates the waffle is done.

4.Remove waffle and place on a wire rack for about 30 seconds, then serve immediately.

Note: Waffles may be kept warm in a preheated 300°F. oven for 5 to 10 minutes but their consistency may change. Batter can be kept overnight under refrigeration. If it thickens, add milk to restore to the desired consistency.

*A wide variety of trademarked mixes are available including General Mills Bisquick®, Pillsbury Hungry Jack®, and Quaker Oats Aunt Jemima®. Chef’sChoice® Gourmet Waffle Mix is ready to use and does not require additives other than water.
