Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for household use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This product is provided with either a
polarized (one wide blade) or grounded (3-prong) plug to reduce the
risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized or
grounded outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by
modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug
does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce
the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be
used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to
or greater than the rating of the appliance. If the appliance is of
the grounding type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type,
3-wire cord. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so
that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be
pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another highwattage appliance on the same circuit with this appliance.

How to Use
w WARNING
Burn Hazard.
Always use an oven mitt to protect hand when opening a hot
waffle baker. Escaping steam can burn.
BEFORE FIRST USE: Wipe the bottom and top cooking plates
with a soapy, damp cloth. Rinse cloth; then wipe plates again.
1.
Plug cord into electrical outlet. The red POWER light comes on.
2. Preheat with cover closed until green PREHEAT light
comes on.
3. Use a cooking spray before pouring
batter into the plates, especially for
dessert waffles or recipes with a
lot of sugar.
4. Raise cover and pour about 2/3 to
3/4 cup (158 to 177 ml) of batter
into the bottom waffle plate. Lower
the cover.
5. Once you pour the batter on the

that the waffle is done.
6. Waffles are done in about 5 to 8 minutes, depending on
recipe, or when steaming begins to stop. Remove waffle

The green PREHEAT light will cycle on and off and does not
indicate that the waffle is done.
Waffle Baker Tips
• Most waffle recipes can be poured directly onto the nonstick
waffle plates. Use a cooking spray for dessert waffles or
any recipe with a lot of sugar. If your waffles start to stick,
the plates 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
200°F (90°C) oven.
• To store waffles, let cool and then pack in an airtight
container. Store in refrigerator or freezer. Waffles can be
reheated in a microwave oven, a toaster oven, or regular
oven.
• Most waffles are done in about 5 to 8 minutes. Recipes
made from scratch may take longer. Check for doneness
when steaming begins to stop. If the cover doesn’t lift easily,
let the waffle cook a minute more before checking again.

Recipes
TIPS: The Belgian waffle plates hold more batter than the
traditional plates of a waffle baker. These recipes give a range
of batter to use, for example, 2/3 to 3/4 cup (158 to 177 ml).
The larger amount should be used for a Belgian waffle.
Waffles can be frozen and then reheated. Make a large batch
ahead of time and let cool on a cooling rack. Freeze in airtight
storage bags; then heat in an oven or microwave oven.
Basic Waffles
2 cups (473 ml) flour
2 Tablespoons (30 ml) sugar
1 Tablespoon (15 ml) baking
powder
1 teaspoon (5 ml) salt
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt;
set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together milk, oil, and eggs.
Gradually add milk mixture to flour mixture. Stir until just
blended. Pour 2/3 to 3/4 cup (158 to 177 ml) of batter into
waffle baker. Close cover and cook 6 to 7 minutes or until
golden brown. Serves: 8
Basic Blueberry Waffles: After pouring batter onto waffle
plates, sprinkle fresh blueberries over batter; then close
cover. Do not stir berries into batter or you will have blue-gray
waffles.
Test Kitchen Tips: Homemade waffle batter may take longer
to cook than packaged pancake and waffle mix. The packaged
mix waffles are done in about 5 minutes. Made-from-scratch
recipes take a few minutes more.
