Tips:

Use fresh ingredients. The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your waffles will taste.
Measure your ingredients carefully. This will ensure that your waffles have the right consistency.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make your waffles tough.
Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking. This will allow the gluten in the flour to relax, which will make your waffles tender.
Cook your waffles in a hot waffle iron. This will help them to cook evenly and quickly.
Serve your waffles immediately. Waffles are best when they are fresh and hot.

Waffles are a delicious and versatile breakfast food. They can be served with a variety of toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream. Waffles can also be used to make sandwiches or wraps. With so many different ways to enjoy them, waffles are a great option for any meal.
