Proportions is right, my good sir.

A good waffle batter contains more eggs and less baking powder than pancake batter. Waffles should be made with both wheat and all purpose flour, too. It's a structural thing. That's why waffles are firm and pancakes are more moist affairs.

Clockwork If you want help you'll have to give us more to go on than just that "they didn't come out right." Were they runny, were they burnt, or what? And if you're using an instant mix crap, like Bisquik, you don't have to worry about using 'pancake' batter; that stuff's all pretty much the same.

But if you're making the batter from scratch, then yeah, it does matter. Here's an excellent waffle recipe courtosy of Alton Brown.

Basic Waffle:
4 3/4 ounces all-purpose flour, approximately 1 cup
4 3/4 ounces whole-wheat flour, approximately 1 cup
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons sugar
3 whole eggs, beaten
2 ounces unsalted butter, melted
16 ounces buttermilk, room temperature
Vegetable spray, for waffle iron

Preheat waffle iron according to manufacturer's directions.

In a medium bowl whisk together the flours, soda, baking powder, salt, and sugar. In another bowl beat together eggs and melted butter, and then add the buttermilk. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir until combined.

Allow to rest for 5 minutes.

Ladle the recommended amount of waffle batter onto the iron according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Close iron top and cook until the waffle is golden on both sides and is easily removed from iron. Serve immediately or keep warm in a 200 degree F oven until ready to serve.
