Ninja has launched a Belgian Waffle Maker that promises perfectly shaped waffles every time, using a vertical design that removes the need for flipping.
The appliance, priced at £99.99, stands upright so batter can be poured into a top funnel, with gravity spreading it evenly. Ninja calls this 'Vertical PrecisionPour Technology', which means users do not have to guess how much batter to add, and there is no flipping, turning, or batter oozing out of the sides.
Five settings and easy cleanup
The waffle maker comes with its own pouring cup designed to get the mixture into the funnel without spills. It offers five settings that let users choose how fluffy or crisp the final waffle turns out, making it possible to cook for guests with different preferences.
Ninja promises a quick heat-up time for even cooking, with no raw batter in the middle, and the ceramic plates have a non-stick coating, so less oil is needed for healthier waffles. Cleanup is also easier compared to scrubbing dried batter out of waffle grooves.
Compact design for small kitchens
The upright design takes up less countertop space than larger air fryers, allowing it to be tucked into a cupboard or down the side of a worktop. As Christmas approaches, the appliance could make a present for food enthusiasts or anyone who enjoys new kitchen gadgets.
