Feasibility of baking regular batter directly in a waffle maker

1. Batter consistency requirements

Regular batter needs to be adjusted to a medium consistency before use.  Too thick will result in insufficient flow, while too thin will easily overflow from the mold. This

can be fine-tuned by adding a suitable amount of milk or cake flour.

2. Preheating and filling

Before pouring in the batter, be sure to preheat the waffle maker to the operating temperature indicated by the indicator light; the batter filling amount is recommended to be controlled at about 2/3 of the mold capacity to prevent overflow during baking.

3. Baking time

This varies slightly depending on the model and batter thickness, but generally baking can be completed within 3-5 minutes. During this time, you can observe the indicator light or color changes to determine doneness.

4. Finished product quality

Following the above steps, regular batter can form golden brown, crispy waffles with clear grid patterns in a waffle maker, meeting the needs of everyday home use.
