These waffles can be stored, in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
This recipe freezes well for up to 3 months, in a sealed container (or Ziplock freezer bag).

💭 Top tip

I will make up this whole recipe and freeze any left over waffles. Then I pop them right into the toaster to get them a little crispier again.
