Chef's Tips

For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of garlic powder or a tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese to the batter. Ensure your waffle iron is hot enough before adding the batter to get that perfect crispy exterior.

Easy Substitutions

Any mild, meltable cheese like Monterey Jack or cheddar can be used instead of mozzarella. For a dairy-free option, use unsweetened almond milk and a dairy-free shredded cheese alternative.
