Just got this, too, and haven't used it yet. I've recently gotten hooked on Dash products as they're made for small batches, which is perfect for small family or just 1 serving. I wish Dash was around when I was back in college and as a single person.
We take waffles seriously in our house ru-vid.comUgkxUfphIgghPSpAXNq6OG2WRYsFVqylcqMn and worked our old one through many years of Sunday brunches till it finally gave out on us. Our old one only made two at a time, this one makes four! Nicely sized 1 inch thick which are lovely! Now the kids don't have to wait as long to eat our weekly waffle breakfast and everyone's are hot if we wait and eat all together! Setting 3 seems to work perfect for golden brown. Be sure to pour the batter in the center of each waffle square, not the center of the iron like the novice that posted the scorched waffles photo. About a 1/4 to 1/3 cup of batter in each seemed to work well for us. We tested making just one at a time so we could use all the remaining batter and it made it just as fluffy and golden as when we made 4!
i just tried mine for the first time, but i think mine doesn't heat up as well as yours...it doesn't cook the doughnuts all the way through, despite how long i leave them in...Also, the other night, i plugged it in before using it tonight, and it definitely seems like it wasn't hot enough...Your's looks like it cooks perfectly...oh, and i even flipped mine, but it doesn't look like you flipped your doughnuts, so it looks like you got a really good functioning one...🎄
I've used it a few times with one time the recipe they gave and both seemed to be kind of dry tasting. Need to figure out the secret to making them perfect
after it is unplugged and completely cooled, i use a sponge with a little hot water on it to spot clean the nonstick inside and a little soap and hot water on a sponge to spot clean the outside. don't submerge in water or get the cords wet and don't use soap or anything that will scratch the nonstick surface. Hope that helps!
I just looked up a mini baked doughnut recipe and it worked great! You could use pancake batter, but they will turn out as doughnut shaped pancakes if that's ok! Hope that helps!
I bought one, followed the dough recipe EXACTLY. In the instructions it says to cook one side 1.5min then flip for four. The dough was too thick, they had burn spots, and lastly, they tasted horrible. My kids thought it was fun to make, but they agreed they tasted gross. Not like doughnuts, not like cake, but like thick, stale, dry, sweet bread. I’m not a baker though, so clearly experience would have prevented a poor outcome- but then what is the point of this product? 0/10 would recommend.
