The Cook Stove Waffle Iron

Make waffles in a wood cook stove? “Grandma did,” says Ron Pasha of Gouverneur, New York. “And so can you. It’s easy!”

Steaming-hot waffles toasted to tawny-brown perfection, topped with butter and warmed maple syrup . . . what could be better on a frosty winter morning? “Nothing,” you say, “but who wants the expense — both in initial cost, and in cost of operation — of a 1,500-watt electric waffle iron?”

Well, you don’t have to have an electricity-gobbling waffle griddle to make and enjoy those scrumptious, stippled, square cakes. There’s an easier (on your pocketbook and on the planet) way to make the goodies . . . and that’s to [1] recycle a discarded electric wafflemaker into a cook stove waffle iron, then [2] use that waffle iron to make those delicious square cakes in the oven section of your wood cook stove, as grandma used to do.
