I recently purchased this electrical taiyaki iron. I have been looking for one with a reasonable price that will ship to Norway for many years! I am so happy right now. I made some with cheddar, and some with Nutella. Both were nice, but sadly the cheese was a bit bland and not very mature and could have been better. You really want cheese that packs some umami I think to balance the sweetness :)
I adapted one of the recipes from the notelet included.
Mix together:
3 1/2 cups gf cake flour ( I used Schär pattisserie)
4 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
8 tsp baking powder
Add and mix well:
3 cups milk
Add and mix:
5 eggs
Add and mix well until fluffy:
1 cup or 2 sticks or 240gr butter, softened
I have seen people using metal spoons to spread the mix in the pan, but I would suggest using a wooden spoon or a silicone spatula instead in order to not harm the non stick coating.
As you can see the recipe calls for a lot of butter. You can find all kinds of variants of batter if this sounds like too much to you. I will however say that this made them satisfyingly crunchy on the outside and wickedly soft and moist on the inside, and then you can decide for yourself :)
