FAQ

Can I use fresh peaches instead of frozen?

Yes, use 1-1/4 cups diced fresh peaches. No need to thaw, but pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture before adding to batter.

What if I don't have a waffle maker?

Make pancakes instead using the same batter. Cook on griddle and cut into strips, though texture will be different from crispy waffles.

How long will the yogurt cream keep?

The cream dip stays fresh covered in refrigerator for up to 2 days. Stir gently before serving as it may separate slightly.
