CARE & CLEANING

Here are a few easy steps to keep your waffle maker looking and working like new:

1Always unplug the waffle maker and allow it to cool before cleaning. There is no need to disassemble the waffle maker for cleaning. Never immerse the waffle maker in water or place in dishwasher.

2Brush away any loose crumbs from the grooves. Wipe grids clean with a paper towel, absorbing any oil or butter that might be down in the grooves of the grid. You can also wipe grids with a damp cloth. Do not use anything abrasive that can scratch or damage the non-stick coating.

3Wipe the outside of the waffle maker with a damp cloth only. Do not clean the outside with any abrasive scouring pad or steel wool, as this will damage the finish. Do not immerse in water or any other liquid. Do not place in the dishwasher.

4Should any batter become baked onto the grids, pour a little cooking oil onto the hardened batter. Let sit 5 minutes to

soften batter, then wipe off with a paper towel or soft cloth.

For proper care of your DuraCeramic™ coated waffle maker, follow the following steps if suborn stains appear:

1Sprinkle some baking soda on the stained area.

2Add enough water to moisten the baking soda, making a paste like texture.

3Let sit for a few minutes (for tougher stains let sit up to an hour).

4Lightly scrub with a plastic scouring pad or damp cloth and dry thoroughly.

5Repeat if necessary.

Should any stubborn stains appear, they will not affect the performance and non-stick quality of the DuraCeramic™ coating.

RECIPES

Classic Waffles

1 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour	3 large eggs, separated
1⁄2 cup cornstarch	2 tbsp. granulated sugar
2 tbsp. cornmeal (optional)	1 3⁄4 cups milk
1 tbsp. baking powder	1⁄2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1 tsp. salt	1⁄2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter,
	melted

In large bowl, sift or whisk together flour, cornstarch, cornmeal, baking powder and salt to blend thoroughly; set aside. In mixer bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Add sugar; continue beating just until stiff peaks form; set aside. Whisk together egg yolks, milk and vanilla. Using rubber spatula, stir milk mixture into flour mixture, blending just until dry ingredients are moistened. (There should still be small lumps; do not over mix.) Stir in melted butter. Fold in beaten egg whites until combined. Pour batter onto hot, greased waffle maker and bake.

Makes about 5 1⁄2 cups batter

Waffle Tip:Cornstarch makes the waffles crisper. If you don’t have cornstarch, you could still make great waffles by omitting cornstarch and increasing flour to 2 cups. Bake as directed.

Toasted Pecan & Cranberry Waffles

Sprinkle chopped pecans onto bottom grid of hot, greased waffle maker. Pour batter over pecans. Sprinkle dried cranberries over batter. Close waffle maker and bake as directed.
