Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Serve waffle bake with extra maple syrup, whipped cream and/or berries, or sprinkle each serving with chopped fresh sage.
  • tip 2
    Waffle bake can be fully prepared the night before. Just bake until done, cool to room temperature, cover and refrigerate overnight. The next morning, heat in a 250°F oven until thoroughly heated.
