Waffle Plate Recipes
From the Cookbook: Recipes for Your George Foreman Waffle Plates
Some FaceBook fans have been searching for waffle recipes for their George Foreman waffle plate sets. Several of our removable plate grills actually come with a waffle plate set that lets you make waffles directly on your grill. The Next Grilleration™ G5 and the Kitchen Bistro™ G4 Waffle both come with waffle plates included; the 360 Grill™ has accessory waffle plates that are sold separately.
Heart-shaped waffle plates for the 360 Grill
The two recipes provided were made using the 360 Grill™ Waffle Plates. The grills don’t have the same capacity, so the recipes below will need to be adjusted for the other two models because the plates are smaller (or you can just make more waffles). To make it easy, the numbers below show the amount of batter and approximate cook times you will use on each grill:
360 Grill™: 1½ – 1¼ cups of batter; cook on High for about 8 minutes.
Kitchen Bistro™ G4: ⅔ – 1 cup of batter; cook at 425°F for about 6 – 8 minutes
Next Grilleration™ G5: ⅔ cup of batter; cook on HIGH for about 3 – 5 minutes
WHOLE WHEAT WAFFLES
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1½ cups whole wheat flour
- 4 tsp. baking powder
- 1½ tsp. baking soda
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 tsp. salt
- 6 large eggs
- 3 cups buttermilk
- ½ cup butter, melted*
Preheat your grill with the waffle plates in place.
Meanwhile in a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt; stir to blend. In a second bowl, beat eggs; blend in buttermilk and butter. Add to flour mixture all at once and blend until just smooth.
Pour 1¼ cups of batter onto the center of the waffle plates. Close the lid and bake about 8 minutes until the lid opens easily and waffles are golden.
Repeat with remaining batter.
Serve immediately with maple or boysenberry syrup, if desired.
Tip: This also makes a great dessert topped with vanilla frozen yogurt or ice cream and caramel sauce.
*If desired, you can substitute margarine or canola oil for butter.
