Working in batches, spread tater tots in an even layer into the waffle iron; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Close, pressing down firmly to flatten, and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 7-8 minutes. Repeat with remaining tater tots, adding more nonstick spray as needed. Once cooked, transfer to cooling rack-lined rimmed baking sheet and keep warm in the preheated oven.
