  5. Divide the dough into 6 equal portions, remove a piece, and roll on the well-floured counter. Give it the shape of the waffle iron. It should be 3-5 mm thick.

  6. When the waffle maker is hot, place the dough and close, let it cook for 4 minutes, see if it is golden brown and continue cooking to the point you want. This depends on each machine, so you have to be careful and try.
