RECIPE NOTES
Place leftover waffles in an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days.
If you want your Belgian waffles to last longer, let them cool completely, then place each waffle between a layer of parchment paper. Place the stack of waffles in freezer bags and squeeze out as much air as possible! Place them in the freezer and store for 3 to 4 months.
