Tips for Perfect Smores Stuffed Waffles
- Customize the filling: Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate (milk, dark, or white chocolate) or add some peanut butter chips for an extra twist.
- Make it a family affair: This recipe is perfect for a family breakfast or brunch. Set up a waffle-making station where everyone can create their own smores-filled waffles!
- Waffle maker tips: Make sure to spray the waffle maker well with non-stick spray to prevent any melted marshmallow or chocolate from sticking.
Can I make the batter ahead of time?
Yes! You can prepare the pancake batter the night before and store it in the fridge. Just give it a good stir before using it in your waffle maker the next day.
Can I use a regular waffle maker instead of a stuffed waffler?
Absolutely! While a stuffed waffle maker works best to hold all the gooey fillings, you can make this in a regular waffle maker. Just be sure to add extra batter and toppings carefully to prevent spilling.
Can I freeze these waffles?
Yes! Smores stuffed waffles freeze really well. Simply cook and cool the waffles, then store them in an airtight container in the freezer. To reheat, pop them in a toaster or microwave for a quick breakfast or snack.
Can I use regular waffle batter instead of pancake batter?
Yes, you can use regular waffle batter, but the texture will be slightly different. Waffle batter is typically thicker and crispier, which can give you a firmer texture. Pancake batter is lighter and fluffier, which works well for stuffed waffles since it allows the filling to stay nestled inside while cooking. You can choose based on the texture you prefer!
What kind of waffle maker is best for stuffed waffles?
The best option for stuffed waffles is a stuffed waffle maker, like the Presto Stuffed Waffler, which is specifically designed to hold fillings inside. If you don’t have one, a regular waffle maker works just fine, but be careful when adding the filling—make sure to close the lid gently to avoid spillage.
How do I prevent the waffle from sticking to the waffle maker?
To prevent sticking, spray both sides of the waffle maker with non-stick cooking spray before adding the batter. You can also use a small amount of melted butter for extra crispiness. If you're using a waffle maker with a non-stick coating, this should keep your waffle from sticking.
Can I use different fillings?
Yes, absolutely! You can get creative with your fillings. Some popular options include:
- Peanut butter (great with chocolate and bananas)
- Fresh fruits like strawberries, bananas, or blueberries
- Nutella or other spreads
- Cream cheese with fruit for a cheesecake-inspired waffle You can also try savory fillings like cheese, ham, or bacon for a unique twist!
How long should I cook the stuffed waffle?
Typically, stuffed waffles need about 7-8 minutes to cook through. Start by preheating your waffle maker, then cook for 2-3 minutes after adding the batter. Flip the waffle carefully and cook for another 7-8 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes, stuffed waffles can be made ahead! Once cooked, allow them to cool, then store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1-2 days. To reheat, simply pop them in the toaster or a microwave. For a crisper result, you can reheat them in a toaster oven.

How do I keep the fillings from spilling out?
To avoid spillage, use a moderate amount of filling—don’t overstuff it. Place the filling in the center of the batter, and make sure the batter is fully covering the top. You can also let the waffle maker cook for a minute before adding the top layer of batter to help seal the edges.
Can I use a regular griddle to make stuffed waffles?
While a regular griddle can’t replicate the waffle texture, you can still make stuffed pancake-style waffles. Cook the batter on the griddle and add your fillings as you would with a regular stuffed waffle maker. The result will be a thicker, softer waffle, but it’s still delicious!
How do I serve stuffed waffles?
There are many ways to serve stuffed waffles:
- Top with whipped cream, melted chocolate, or syrup for a decadent treat.
- Add extra graham cracker crumbs, fruit, or even ice cream for an indulgent dessert.
- For a savory option, try adding a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chives.
What if the waffle is undercooked inside?
If the waffle is undercooked inside, it could be because the waffle maker wasn’t hot enough or the filling wasn’t fully sealed. To fix this, lower the heat on the waffle maker and cook for a few extra minutes. You can also check the doneness by gently opening the waffle maker to ensure the inside is cooked through.
Can I make stuffed waffles without a waffle maker?
Yes, you can! If you don’t have a waffle maker, you can use a griddle or a sandwich press. The texture will be slightly different since it won't have the crispy grid pattern of a waffle maker, but the result will still be a delicious stuffed pancake-like treat.
What if the marshmallows melt and ooze out?
Marshmallows tend to melt quickly, so it’s common for them to ooze out. To minimize this, cut the marshmallows into smaller pieces and make sure there’s enough pancake batter to seal them in. Additionally, make sure the waffle maker isn’t too hot—this helps to keep the marshmallow from spilling over too quickly.

Cook the stuffed waffle
Close the waffle maker and let it cook for 2-3 minutes before flipping it over. Continue cooking for an additional 7-8 minutes until the waffle is golden brown and crispy on the outside, with melted chocolate and marshmallows inside.
