Waffle Plates for Cuisinart Griddler GR-4N and GRID-8N Series (Not for Old Model GR-4 or GRID-8)

Product Information

Wipe the exterior: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the exterior of the waffle maker. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scrubbing brushes, as they can damage the surface. Baking time is determined by the browning level that you chose in Step 3. Normal baking time for Shade #3 is about 3 minutes, but depending on your waffle recipe, that may vary. Lighter shades take a little less time; darker shades a little more.

Prepare the waffle batter: While the waffle maker [ 1] is preheating, prepare your waffle batter according to your favorite recipe. Ensure the batter is well-mixed and free of lumps. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest Cuisinart Authorized Service Facility for examination, repair, or adjustment. Clean the waffle plates: Depending on the model, the waffle plates may be removable or fixed. If they are removable, carefully detach them from the waffle maker and wash them in warm, soapy water. If they are fixed, use a damp cloth or sponge to clean them. Avoid immersing the entire unit in water. Unplug and cool down: Unplug the waffle maker before cleaning and let it cool down completely. This ensures your safety during the cleaning process. So, embrace the art of waffle making, unleash your creativity with toppings, and savor the deliciousness that awaits you with each delightful bite. Happy waffle-making!Be certain grids have cooled completely before cleaning. If batter adheres to plates, simply pour a little cooking oil onto the bakedon batter and let stand for about 5 minutes. This will soften the batter for easy removal.

We feel we’d be doing a disservice if we didn’t mention the Griddler’s big brother, the Griddler Elite. The Elite has the same features as the basic version we reviewed, but with a few extras that we found appealing. Cook the waffle: Cook the waffle for the recommended time, typically 3 to 5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Avoid opening the waffle maker prematurely, resulting in undercooked waffles. Do not overfill the waffle maker – it should not be filled to the top of the waffle grid. Always use the provided measuring cup as a guide. Indicator Lights – Red indicator light signals power ON; green indicator light signals when waffle maker is ready to bake and when waffle is ready to eat. The hidden drip tray gives the Griddler a smaller footprint and a neater appearance, but that also means it’s easy to forget about when it’s time to clean up. Price: Affordable and worth itThe Cuisinart Griddler boasts the ability to work as an indoor grill, a griddle, and a panini press, but does it do all three jobs well? We used it to cook breakfast, lunch, and dinner, testing both the flat and ridged plates, and we enjoyed the results. While we’re not getting rid of our outdoor grill for cooking steaks on a sunny day, we appreciated the ease of using the Griddler, as well as the simple cleaning of the grill plates in the dishwasher. Read on for all the juicy details about this top-rated kitchen tool.
