Tips for Making Waffles and

Waffle Stix

Thickness of waffle batters may vary. Adjust amount of batter as needed.

Most waffle recipes can be poured directly onto the nonstick waffle grids. Use a cooking spray for dessert waffles or any recipe 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 (93ºC) 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.

For soft, tender waffles, cook for about 5 to 6 minutes.

For crisp, breakable waffles, cook for about 612 to 7 minutes.

Most waffles are done in about 6 minutes. Some of the recipes which are made from scratch may take a little longer. Check for doneness at about 6 minutes. If the cover of the waffle maker doesn’t lift up easily, then let it cook a minute more before checking again. Another indicator that the waffle is done is when the steaming stops.
