I was watching an American TV show recently and missed a lot of the plot, as I was distracted by the amount of waffle-eating going on. I tried to prevent myself getting a waffle iron; I鈥檇 made that mistake once before. Reader, I didn鈥檛 succeed. But I vowed that this time I wouldn鈥檛 use it once then consign it to a cupboard under the stairs, and I鈥檝e been as good as my word and have turned into something of a weekend waffler.

Buyer's guide

Frozen waffles are easy to use as they can be placed in the toaster and simply reheated.

Storage

Waffles are best frozen in an airtight container. Do not refreeze frozen waffles that have been defrosted.

Preparation

When making homemade waffles, it鈥檚 important not to over-enrich the batter with too much fat, sugar or egg as the waffles can colour too quickly and turn soft soon after baking. Use plain flour rather than bread flour to help produce a light and crisp result and keep egg, sugar and cream to a minimum. The toppings used will accentuate the sweet or savoury characteristics of the waffle.
