Tips for Freezing

Place waffles on a parchment lined baking sheet making sure they don't touch. Place baking sheet in freezer for 30-60 minutes to "flash" freeze the waffles. Place frozen waffles in a ziploc bag and store for up to three weeks in freezer. To reheat, place in the toaster and toast until heated through.
