Questions about Plain waffle
How do you reheat a plain waffle so it stays crisp?
Put it straight into a toaster until hot and crisp, or heat it on a rack in an oven at 180 °C for about 5 minutes. A microwave warms it quickly but leaves it soft.
Can you freeze plain waffles?
Yes. Cool them completely, separate with baking paper and freeze in an airtight bag; toast from frozen, adding a little time until the centre is hot.
What do you eat with a plain waffle?
Try it with berries and yoghurt, sliced banana and nut butter, or a savoury topping such as a fried egg and grated cheese. Plain waffles also make a quick base for ice cream and fruit.
Can you use plain waffles instead of pancakes?
Yes, but waffles are usually crisper and have deeper pockets for syrup or fruit, while pancakes are softer and easier to roll or stack. Plain pancakes have 227 kcal per 100 g, compared with 291 kcal per 100 g for plain waffle.
Is plain waffle the same as a wafer?
No. A waffle is a thicker, soft batter cake cooked between patterned plates; a wafer is thin, crisp and often layered with filling. Plain wafers have 400 kcal per 100 g, compared with 291 kcal per 100 g for plain waffle.
How much does one round plain waffle weigh?
A round waffle about 18 cm across weighs around 75 g. A smaller piece of 28 g is a useful serving when you are adding other breakfast foods.
Does plain waffle contain much sodium?
A 75 g round waffle contains 383 mg of sodium. Pair it with fruit or yoghurt rather than salty toppings if you want to keep the meal less salty.
Can you eat plain waffle cold?
Yes. It is already cooked, so you can eat it cold; to bring back a freshly made texture, toast it briefly rather than microwaving it.
