SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
No serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to VILLAWARE MFG. CO.
1.A short electrical cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from entanglement or tripping, etc. As with all electrical appliances, any extension cord must have a rating at least equal to the electrical rating of the appliance. Care should be taken not to allow cords to hang over the edge of a counter or tabletop. (If you appliance has a grounded 3-prong plug, you must use the compatible 3-wire extension cord.)
2.Do not allow appliance to come into contact with any flammable materials such as draperies, walls, etc.
YOUR INTER-BAKER INCLUDES 3 SETS OF GRIDS
Waffle grids, one pair
Sandwich Grilling grids, one pair Pizzelle Cookie grids, one pair
The removable grids should be washed when using them for the first time. Wash in warm, soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. Never put any part of the appliance in the dishwasher.
To install grids: With grid centered on the housing, insert the 2 tabs at back of grids and then press the front of the grid downward until it snaps into position. For safety, it is recommended to use a pot holder or oven mitts when installing or removing hot grids.
To remove grids: Slide grid clip at front of unit forward until grid is released. Lift grid out.
HOW TO USE YOUR INTER-BAKER APPLIANCE
1. Plug unit into 110-120 volt AC wall outlet.When the unit is new you may notice a slight smoking or odor. This is normal and will not recur.
The red light will glow, indicating that the baker has begun preheating. It will take 8-10 minutes to reach baking temperature. When the baking
temperature is reached the red light will turn OFF. After this point, you will see the light go ON and OFF. This means that the baking temperature is being maintained, and is not telling you when to start or stop baking.

2.When using for the first time, thoroughly wash and then dry the baking grids.
3.Now youʼre ready to bake Waffles, grill Sandwiches, or bake Pizzelles. Just insert the appropriate grids, and follow the instructions for the food you are preparing as shown a little further on in this booklet.
4.When baking, never use metal utensils, which can damage the nonstick surface of the grids. Let only wood or plastic utensils contact the non-stick surface.
5.When finished, remove the plug from the wall socket. Let cool.
6.Finally, itʼs easy to clean up. See clean up instructions further on in this booklet.
Making Waffles
1.Before the first waffle of the day use a pastry brush to lightly coat the top and bottom waffle grids with a vegetable oil or melted shortening. Spray shortenings work well for this purpose.
2.Ladle just enough batter to fill lower grid so that the peak areas of the grid are covered. If necessary, a spatula may be used to spread the batter into the corners of grid.
3.Close the baker. Do not open the baker for at least 1-1/2 minutes. Opening too soon will cause unbaked waffles to split, top from bottom.
4.Remove waffles from the grid with a non-metallic utensil. Waffles are ready to serve.
5.If you need to take a short break, or are interrupted, close the baker to maintain maximum heat. A hot waffler produces best results. Waffles may tend to stick if the iron cools down.
For Best Waffle Baking Results
DO NOT OPEN WAFFLER during the first 90 seconds of baking. Wait until most of the escaping steam slows down. If opened to soon, waffle will split and become difficult to remove.
STIR WAFFLE BATTER just until large lumps disappear. Do not

over-mix.
IF YOU NEED TO TAKE A SHORT BREAK or are interrupted, close the baker to maintain maximum heat. A hot waffler produces best results. Waffles may tend to stick if the iron cools down.
EXTRA CRISPY WAFFLES may be produced by allowing a longer baking time. Shorten the baking time for less crispiness.
LIGHTER WAFFLES may be produced by first beating the egg yolks, blending with flour & other ingredients, then gently folding beaten egg whites into the batter.
WHEN SERVING WAFFLES flip them over onto a plate with bottom side up. Gravity lets the bottom fill out completely, whereas there is not always enough rise for the batter to perfectly fill out the top half of the waffle grid.
FOR A CRISPIER WAFFLE you may use a cooling rack to let waffles cool down and dry out.
Making Sandwiches
1.Each time you grill sandwiches, use a pastry brush to lightly coat the top and bottom waffle grids with a small amount of margarine, butter or shortening. A spray shortenings may be used for this purpose.
2.Close the Inter-Baker and prepare sandwich while unit is heating.
3.Fully open the Inter-Baker. Place a slice of bread in the bottom half with the buttered side against the grid.
4.First, form a hollow by pressing the bottom slice of bread into the bottom grid-cavity, and then fill the sandwich.
5.Cover sandwich with the top slice, keeping the buttered side up, and carefully close the sandwich maker. Do not force shut. Steam will escape from between the grids while pressing sandwich together. Care must be taken to assure that fingers are kept away from the escaping steam.
6.Lock the two halves together with the handle clip while sandwiches are toasting.

7.Your sandwich will be toasted in about 3-4 minutes. Toast longer or shorter to suit your taste. Baking times vary according to type of bread or food you are cooking, and how well you prefer it done. Open the toaster and remove sandwich using plastic or wooden spatula. Never use metal utensils which may damage the non-stick coating.
8.Close the lid to maintain proper baking temperature until ready to toast the next sandwiches.
9.While sandwiches are cooking, you may prepare additional sandwiches ahead of time.
Making Pizzelles
1.Before the first pizzelles of the day only, use a pastry brush to carefully coat the entire surface of both halves of the pizzelle baker with vegetable oil or melted shortening. Spray shortenings work very well for this purpose. Repeat this only at the start of each day that you bake pizzelles.
2.Place about 1 heaping teaspoon of batter on each grid pattern. With some experimentation, you will learn that by placing the batter slightly behind the center of the pattern (that is, away from you) your pizzelles will come out closer to a round shape. This is because as you close the iron, the batter squeezes forward a little.
3.Close the baker, press the handles together, and fasten with the handle clip. Baking will take approximately 30-45 seconds depending on your preference for browning, or the consistency of your batter. NOTE: Grip only the black, cool-touch handle parts. Use care not to touch the heated metal housing area near the handles.
4.Remove pizzelles from the grid with a spatula. If flat pizzelles are desired, place on a counter top to cool. If you wish to shape your pizzelles, do so by removing one pizzelle from the grid and shaping immediately while still warm. Your 2nd pizzelle will remain warm and
pliable on the hot grid until you are ready to remove it for shaping. You may use the included Cone Roller to form small cone shapes.
5.If you need to take a short break, close the baker to reserve heat. When you return to baking, you will notice that the first two pizzelles will
6
bake much faster because extra heat has been allowed to build up.
6. When you are through baking, simply unplug from the wall outlet to turn off, and leave baker open to allow it to cool. After it has cooled, brush crumbs from the grooves and wipe off grids with a dry paper towel to absorb any excess margarine or shortening.
For Best Pizzelle Baking Results
BAKING HINT Place batter on hot grid as quickly as you can. It is normal for the center of the 1st cookie that you bake to tend to look a little darker in the center than the 2nd pizzelle cookie. This is because the first lump of batter starts baking instantly the moment it touches the hot grid. Anyway it is normal that there is some color and size variations when serving pizzelles, with some cookies baking a little darker or lighter or larger or smaller, etc.
MORE ABOUT PLACING THE DOUGH You may use 2 spoons to place batter on the grid, using the 2nd spoon to push off the batter. Another method is to first roll the batter into 2 balls, and then quickly place the 2 balls on the grids. Still another method used if you have a cookie press, is to use the cookie press to dispense the pizzelle dough onto the grids. The cookie press is faster than using 2 spoons, however the use of 2 prerolled balls is probably the fastest.
SNOW FLAKE EDGE PIZZELLES If you want a “snow flake” edged pizzelle, one that has an irregular, flowery edging, use a smaller amount of batter. In this way your pizzelles will not fill out to the “full-circle” size. The batter will not spread out to cover the full pattern on the grid. This “undersize” gives the pizzelle the attractive, irregular edge “snow-flake” border preferred by many.
FULL-CIRCLE SIZE PIZZELLES If you want a full size pizzelle, one that fills out the “full-circle” of the pizzelle pattern on the grid, place a greater amount of batter on the grid. The batter should spread out to go beyond the full pattern of the grid. After baking, you may use a kitchen scissors to trim off the extra “flashing” around the cookie circle to obtain a full patterned pizzelle.
SERVING & STORING Pizzelles are light and crisp. Serve them plain or dusted with powdered sugar. Also, they can be easily shaped while still
