Notes
- Don't worry about lumps when mixing batter; they create little air pockets for fluffier waffles.
- Preheat the waffle maker thoroughly before cooking to ensure even browning.
- Use a ladle or measuring cup to pour batter onto the center of the waffle iron to avoid overflow.
- Resist opening the waffle iron too soon; wait until the cooking indicator to get crisp golden waffles.
- Store leftover waffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
