Just caught Dh doing this. I have told him to put them in the oven where they belong. AIBU

Well shit me.

This is the best news all year.

GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 26/01/2022 20:41

How long should they take from frozen?

Goldenbunny · 26/01/2022 20:41

The waffles from Iceland say to put them in toaster.

I've been doing it for decades. Most brands say on the box that they can be toasted. Go apologize to your husband!

listsandbudgets · 26/01/2022 20:46

I thought they were meant to be done in the toaster!! Showsnwhat I know

LTB.

If I'm doing them for the family with chicken nuggets etc I do them know the oven. Its amazingly handy to just stick 2 in the toaster for a quick lunch with beans when it's just me though.

Willyoujustbequiet · 26/01/2022 20:50

I'm a convert to this. So much quicker and easier.
Will never do them any other way now.

negomi90 · 26/01/2022 20:53

Some brands have toaster Instructions. You're supposed to!

Fedupsotired · 26/01/2022 20:54

We do them like this for a quick breakfast with a fried egg on top!!

Bakewelltart987 · 26/01/2022 20:57

It says on the Box you can toast them birds eye ones do anyway.

TurdCrapley · 26/01/2022 20:58

I discovered this only a couple of years ago and DH looked at me like I was barmy but it's so handy! I want potato waffles now...

Doggydreaming · 26/01/2022 21:01

Toaster twice on the high setting. Nice and crispy.

tokyo1 · 26/01/2022 21:02

Woahhh this is a revelation Shock

daisyducky · 26/01/2022 21:04

I burnt my toaster out doing this!

@Doggydreaming

Toaster twice on the high setting. Nice and crispy.
Exactly.

And I agree with the pp that I pay the extra for the Birds Eye ones just for the convenience of using the toaster.

Oldraver · 26/01/2022 21:05

Toaster is best for these

I've recently discovered Iceland's has brown waffles but they say to do in the oven

Callipygion · 26/01/2022 21:06

I used those reusable toaster pockets to put them in.

Yep, toaster all the way

Thepowerofthelook · 26/01/2022 21:09

Use toaster bags it solves the oil problem.

BargainBucketForOne · 26/01/2022 21:11

I'm off the carbs but now all I can think about is toaster waffles!

Also thinking about toaster hash browns...

HunterHearstHelmsley · 26/01/2022 21:12

@HelloFrostyMorning

How does this even work? They need 15 minutes or so in the oven.

Do the posters who claim they use the toaster for potato waffles also use the toaster to cook pies, and chips, and pizza etc???

Yes. We all put pies in the toaster.
Snooks1971 · 26/01/2022 21:13

I thought this was an urban myth!

(Adds waffles to shopping list)

SilentNoMore · 26/01/2022 21:13

Well not pies, but turn a toaster on its side and it is perfect for reheating pizza.
