TIPS FOR MAKING
PERFECT WAFFLES
We recommend setting #3 to 4 when using
commercial pancake/waffle mixes.
We recommend setting #3 to 4 for most
homemade (from scratch) waffle recipes.
If you prefer crisper, darker waffles, increase the
browning control. For lighter waffles, decrease
the browning control.
For evenly filled waffles, pour the batter into the
center of the lower grid and spread out evenly to
the edges. The entire lower grid should be filled.
For best results, we recommend using
3
⁄4 cup
batter to fill the entire lower grid.
Waffles taste 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 Cuisinart
®
toaster
or toaster oven when ready to use.
Serve savory-flavored waffle sticks in place of
bread or muffins to accompany soup or chili.
Add fresh or frozen thawed berries, finely diced
(
1
⁄8 inch) fruits – apples, pears, peaches, finely
chopped nuts, or 1 mashed banana to Basic
Waffles, Honey Whole Wheat Waffles, or Waffle
Mix Waffle Sticks.
