Step 8
I have a Soviet-era waffle iron. Modern flat ones work too. The Soviet waffle iron needs to be greased with vegetable oil. So, grease the inside of the waffle iron. Pour in 1 tablespoon of batter. Close the lid and hold it in place.

Step 9
After 1.5 minutes, we'll get a crepe like this. It's still soft and flexible. I should note that the waffle iron must be very well preheated before cooking the first waffle.

Step 10
Remove the waffle from the waffle maker. If you plan to fill the waffles, immediately roll it into a cylinder. After 2-3 seconds, the waffle will harden and become inflexible. After cooling, these waffles can be either soft or crispy, hard and brittle. It all depends on the first 5 minutes after removal from the waffle maker. For a crispy texture, cool each waffle separately (on a rack or on the table). After completely cooled, stack them. To get soft waffles, you can stack them right away. They will cool down but won't be crispy.

Step 11
Serve the waffles. They are delicious. You can make a cake from these waffles or just eat them as they are. Very tasty. They remain crispy (if prepared properly) even after 10 hours.
