The green READY Light comes on when the waffle baker has reached the perfect temperature. For best results, wait until the green READY Light comes on before adding the waffle batter.

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. Ladle chili over waffles made with cornmeal or stack deli meat over whole wheat waffles for an open- face sandwich.
