• Put leftover waffles in a freezer bag and freeze. Pop into the toaster to warm and crisp.

on 12/27/2008 For a special treat, melt the butter in a saucepan with about 4 grams of finely ground cannabis until the butter boils and the cannabis is given time to saturate. Separate the cannabis particles and butter, then add that butter to the waffles. Your "enriched" waffles should set your day in motion. :-D

on 7/15/2006 Add brown sugar to the mix. I like to add cinnamon and sugar to my waffle mix, or you could use a sweet butter.

on 1/26/2006 Beat the egg whites! It takes a bit more time, but the results are worth it! An adjustable temperature iron is nice too.

on 1/26/2006 To make your waffles light and fluffy, separate the egg yolks from the whites. Beat the whites until fluffy and firm. After mixing all of the other ingredients as instructed, fold in the egg whites to the batter.

on 1/26/2006 Instead of eggs, oil, and dairy milk, substitute coconut milk. Mix batter thoroughly. Make sure the batter is not too viscous; it should pour fairly easily. Not worried about calories? Top with fruit and coconut syrup for and island treat, yum!
