Notes
The waffles may also be made in batches, which is convenient if you’re always in a rush. It takes only a few minutes to prepare. To keep leftover waffles in the refrigerator, let them cool completely before storing them in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
If you choose to freeze leftovers, place the cooled waffles on a lined baking sheet. Second, flash freeze for few hours then, transfer them to plastic freezer bags. Make sure to place pieces of parchment paper in between to prevent them from sticking together. Lastly, keep them in the freezer for about 1-2 months.
