Why Use Oil Instead of Butter?
Instead of butter, this recipe recommends using oil. The reason is because the waffles will be crispier than if you were to use butter. The best type of oil to use is a neutral-tasting oil like vegetable or canola.

How to Freeze Waffles
The best way to save waffles is by freezing them. To do this, simply let the waffles cool completely on a wire rack. Once they are cooled, place about two waffles in each sandwich baggie.

Seal the bags. Then, put all of your sealed baggies into one big freezer storage bag. When you want to eat a waffle, simply take one out of the freezer and place it in your toaster.

What is the Best Pancake Mix for Waffles?
The best pancake mix to use is one that’s plain. Avoid using flavored pancake mixes or ones that have fruit in them. I like to use pancake mixes that only call for the addition of water, like Krusteaz.

Ingredients
1 1/2 Cups Pancake Mix (Just Add Water Type)
2/3 Cup Water
3 Tablespoons Oil
1 Egg
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract (optional)
1 Tablespoon Malted Milk Powder (optional)
1/2 Teaspoon Cinnamon

Instructions
1. Add the pancake mix, water, oil, beaten egg, and optional ingredients to a mixing bowl.
2. Use a whisk to combine the ingredients to make waffle batter.
3. Heat a waffle iron and brush with oil to keep the waffles from sticking.
4. Add the batter to the hot waffle iron. (I used 1/4 cup of batter for my small Dash Waffle Iron)
5. When the waffle iron indicates it is done, remove the waffle and serve, or keep warm in the oven.
