Putting a frozen waffle in the toaster and watching a crispy, fluffy waffle emerge is the easiest thing ever. When you’re pressed for time, you can pretend you’re enjoying a leisurely weekend brunch while still enjoying a hot waffle by the time your coffee has finished brewing. Look for whole-grain or gluten-free waffles in the freezers of grocery stores if you’re changing your lifestyle. Despite being frozen, the waffles don’t need to be thawed because a toaster is designed to cook them.
Turn the temperature on the toaster to the lowest setting. The temperature setting is typically located at the base of the toaster, below the lever used to lower food items into the toaster, with the far left setting being the lowest.
Lower the waffles into the toaster by depressing the lever. The waffles will automatically eject from the toaster.
To avoid receiving an electric shock, avoid removing the waffles from the toaster with a fork or knife.

Cooking Frozen Waffles in the Toaster Oven
The most common way to prepare frozen waffles is to bake them in a toaster oven. While using this technique will produce pale, lightly crisped waffles, it is one of the most basic ways to prepare them in terms of flavor and texture. However, since the cooking doesn’t give the waffles a strong flavor, this method of preparing waffles is a good choice if you have children who are picky eaters.

If you need to get frozen waffles on the table quickly, using a toaster oven is a benefit because it cooks them the fastest.

I toasted my waffles in my toaster oven for 2 1/2 minutes on the lowest setting.
They were not particularly flavorful, but they did come out lightly crisped as anticipated.
The waffles tasted simple and somewhat plain after I topped them with butter and maple syrup, just as I had anticipated.
I love using my air fryer, so I was excited to try this method
Using the air fryer was super simple.
I placed the buttered waffle in the basket and set the timer for seven minutes, intending to flip it over halfway. I heated the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
However, the waffle started to sizzle and rattle after about four minutes, so I took it out.
