Fill each section about 2/3 full, close maker until done. Repeat with addition batter. Separate waffles into the 4 sections when done.

Eggs

  • To poach the eggs, bring a pot filled 1/2 way with water and 2 tbsp vinegar to a simmer. Crack an egg into a cup or bowl. Lower the cup to the water and slowly drop in the egg. Repeat with second egg. Let egg cook until the egg white is done and the yolk is still runny.
