<H2> Do you have to grease the waffle maker before using it? </H2>

This waffle batter recipe has more oil or butter than pancakes, so if your iron grids are preheated, your waffles shouldn’t stick. However, if they do, you can always brush or spray a little neutral cooking oil on the waffle grids. 

<H2> Can you freeze waffles? </H2>

Freezing is the best way to store leftover waffles. In the Betty Crocker Kitchens we separate our waffles with squares of wax or parchment paper and then tuck them in plastic freezer bags. It’s best to use up frozen waffles within a month.

How to serve waffles

You can stick with syrup, fresh fruit, and whipped cream, or if you’re feeling fancy, try one (or a few!) of these creative waffle topping ideas: 

Apple-Rum Butter: A rich, delicious topping with a hint of fall flavor. Beat 1/2 cup softened butter with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in 1/2 cup apple butter and 1 teaspoon rum or 1/4 teaspoon rum extract to taste. 

Blackberry-Lime Sauce: This sweet-tart topping tastes like summer! In a small saucepan, combine 2 cups blackberries or raspberries, 1/4 cup water, 1/4 cup sugar and 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice. Simmer sauce for 10-15 minutes until berries break down and sauce slightly thickens; stir in 1 teaspoon grated lime peel. 

Cherry and Granola Topping: A classic topping reminiscent of cherry pie, with a satisfying crunch from the granola. Top waffles with about 1/4 cup vanilla yogurt and 1/4 cup frozen (thawed) sweet cherries; sprinkle with 2 tablespoons granola. 
Maple Yogurt Topping with Candied Nuts and Bananas: This topping is sweet, creamy and indulgent! Stir 1/3 cup real maple syrup into 8 ounces plain Greek yogurt; top pancakes with maple yogurt; sprinkle with candied or regular walnuts, or pecans and sliced bananas. 

Red, White and Blueberries Topping: Colorful berries and a creamy topping look so fresh and patriotic. Melt 1/4 cup raspberry preserves in a small saucepan; add about 1 tablespoon orange liqueur or orange juice. Serve sauce with pancakes, fresh blueberries and 1/2 cup crème fraiche or sour cream mixed with 1 tablespoon sugar. 

Super Sundae Topping: Turn waffles into a decadent dessert with ice cream sundae-inspired toppings! Drizzle pancakes with warm chocolate sauce or chocolate syrup; top with sliced bananas, fresh strawberries, chopped toasted pecans, sweetened whipped cream and a maraschino cherry.

What are the best toppings for waffles?

Package up your waffles individually and freeze them. You can pop them in the toaster next week (or even next month) for an easy weekday breakfast! Note: it’s best to use up leftover waffles within a month.

Eggs can help you make lighter, fluffier waffles — it’s the secret to the best waffle recipe, and it’s so easy! Separate the eggs into yolks and whites. Lightly beat the yolks and add them to the batter. Then use a wire whisk to beat the whites until stiff peaks form. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the egg whites into the batter. Be careful not to overmix the batter at this stage, or you’ll lose all the loft you beat into the egg whites. From here, you can make waffles as directed in the recipe.

What’s the secret to light, fluffy waffles?

First, start with a good recipe — the right amount of sugar and fat will lead to a crispy crust and soft interior. This recipe is it! 
Make sure you don’t over-whisk your batter, which will lead to chewy waffles instead of airy waffles. Then, make sure to let your waffle maker is preheated before adding your batter. A hot waffle maker will create crispy, golden-brown waffles. 
Don’t stack your waffles or put them on a solid surface. In the Betty Crocker Kitchens, we cool our waffles on a wire rack, so air hits both sides and keeps them from getting soggy. Putting the wire rack on a sheet pan in the oven will keep them even crisper! 
And finally, wait to put the toppings on your waffles until right before you heat them. Otherwise, the waffles will absorb the butter, syrup, fruit, etc. and soften.

Since these sandwiches are free-form, using a levered ice cream scoop to scoop the batter ensures the waffles will be similar in size.

Freezing the waffles on the cookie sheet before dipping will make the chocolate set faster.

After dipping the cold waffles into the chocolate, return them to the cold cookie sheet and let them set a few seconds. Then move them to another spot, like a sheet of cooking parchment paper—this keeps the chocolate from pooling around the waffle.
