Notes

  • If starting with frozen strawberries, let them defrost and drain out most of the excess liquid before using them.
  • If your waffle batter is too thick, then mix in a couple of tablespoons of milk at a time. If too thin, then mix in a couple of tablespoons of flour at a time.
  • For the best results, make sure the waffle iron is thoroughly warmed up, before you add in the batter.
  • Keep the cooked waffles warm by storing it in the oven for 5-10 minutes at 200 degrees F / 94 degrees C on a wire rack on a baking sheet.
  • Ensure that the waffle iron is lightly oiled or sprayed before cooking each batch so that the waffles can be easily removed after cooking.
  • Do not open the waffle iron halfway through the cooking time.
  • Increase the heat on the waffle iron for crispy, golden brown waffles, but watch them so they don't burn.
  • It is okay to have some lumps in the batter. Avoid overmixing it, as this will make the waffles dense.
  • Don't overfill the waffle maker, as the batter will run out and make a big mess.
  • Store - Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days
  • There are 5 Blue Plan SmartPoints in one serving of this.
