Yeast raised waffles

[Evets]

And the dough recipe is........... Can't leave us in the dark here.

Sorry, I just saw that you asked for the recipe. I'll get back to you.

AAGGHHH! You're killing me!

Someday, I may make my own. Someday.

And you know darn well that an indoor oven is no way gonna make that pizza.

I assure you, those pies were baked in my electric kitchen oven. Why would I lie about that?

As much as I like waffles, I will never own another Waring product. I had a Waring Pro waffle maker (like what you see in a continental breakfast buffet at a hotel) that died before 1 year was up. Waring replaced it with one that died 4 months later, and then they replaced that one with another of short life. The problem is the last one they sent still technically works, it just doesn't heat up to the same temps and takes about 3x as long as it should to heat. It also takes up a ton of space...so I steer clear.

Side question, did you get your waffle iron at Sears?

My electric oven is a big POS, as are two others that I use regularly.

Yup I think so at least. The first one was a gift. After that returns / exhanges were through Waring and Sears both.

Interesting. We have that same waffle iron. We almost bought it at Sears but then I checked the reviews. It was really odd. Same model everywhere but the ones from Sears got the WORST reviews. Premature failure from melting an electrical component. Yet the same model at Macy's and on Amazon got 4.5 stars. It's almost like Sears was getting the crappy ones intentionally. I have stopped shopping there after a couple of lawn tools failed prematurely. Just not what they used to be...

Ok, here you go. If you are using the pancake batter as a starter, this recipe is for 1 10x14 pie, and should bake in a steel pan, not aluminum, about 475 for maybe 10 minutes.
Bread Flour 310 grams
Water (68%) 200 g
Salt (2%) 6.75g or +/- 1.5 t-spn
Batter (10%) 60 g

If you just want to make the pizza without the waffle batter, then increase the flour to335 g, the water to 230g, include 1 t-spn sugar and a half a t-spn active dry yeast.
Mix with a fork until it looks a bit like cottage cheese. It will be rather wet and you won't really be able to knead it. Let rise at room temp for 5-6 hrs. before baking, during which time do a series of stretch and folds, which is just picking up one side of the dough and pulling it over onto itself. All four sides is one s&f. Wet your hands first so it doesn't stick to your fingers. Once risen, just oil your pan, flour your dough and put it in the pan, cover and let rise again about an hr. then bake.

Got mine from amazon and I just made waffles on it Saturday. almost 2 years going strong. I did see a lot of reviews on amazon about faulty fuses and having to make repairs but I guess I was one of the lucky ones.

Assuming an easy weekend, I am making this Friday. Also need the temp to drop a bit but that is why they made AC I guess. Thanks for the recipe.
