Before we dive in, safety first folks: Refer to the instruction manual because every waffle iron is different and cleaning recommendations may differ.
OK, now to the good stuff:
Grab your favorite cooking spray from the pantry and apply an even coat on a warm iron before whipping up those waffles. This helps prevent them from sticking to your iron and creating a waffle mess.
Leave the cleaning for after breakfast and enjoy those delicious waffles before wiping down the iron. Just don’t forget to unplug your machine before digging in!
Take a slightly damp wash cloth and wipe away any oil residue or leftover waffle bits.
