    This is how the waffles look in the cut!

Such waffles are good because they are low-calorie, rich in vitamins and dietary fiber. However, not everyone will like squash waffles, because after baking they turn out to be a little dry on top (like waffles), unlike the usual juicy, soft squash fritters fried in a frying pan. But someone will definitely like them. At the same time, it is important to note, so as not to mislead anyone, that freshly cooked waffles turn out crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Later they soften and there is no trace of the crispy crust, so you should eat them right away. And more… Such waffles are best served with sour cream, sour cream-garlic sauce with dill or any other sauces.
