Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Fast-acting yeast calls for liquids that are slightly warmer than regular active dry yeast. The safest way to judge temperature is with a thermometer. These waffles are very easy to make…about the only way they will not perform is if the milk is too hot.
  • tip 2
    To make waffle batter ahead, fill storage container half full, cover loosely and refrigerate up to 24 hours; stir down if batter rises to top of container.
