Wake Up and Smell the Waffles
These homemade, hearty waffles are a simple and satisfying breakfast any day of the week. Forget using a mix from a box. This recipe is every bit as quick and delicious and more nutritious. The dense texture of the waffles is from a mixture of grains, including whole-wheat flour and oats, adding flavor and natural sweetness, as well as more nutrients and fiber. To keep these homemade waffles on hand, make several batches and freeze them individually wrapped. Reheat in a warm oven or toaster.
Berry Special Waffles
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
1 1/4 cups fat-free buttermilk
1/4 cup rolled oats
2 Tbsp. toasted wheat germ
1 Tbsp. sugar
1 Tbsp. canola oil
1 tsp. baking soda
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Pinch of salt
Cooking spray
2 cups assorted fresh or frozen thawed berries, such as strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and blackberries drizzled with maple syrup, if desired
In a medium bowl, whisk together the first 10 ingredients. Let the mixture stand several minutes to thicken. (Add additional buttermilk to thin the batter if needed.) Coat a waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray and preheat. When the waffle iron is ready, ladle the batter into the center of bottom grid until it spreads to within one inch of the edges. Close the cover and cook until golden, about 5 minutes. Place the waffle on a plate; cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat with more batter. Place the waffles on serving plates. Spoon the berries over the top and serve immediately.
Options: Serve these waffles as a dessert with low-fat frozen yogurt. Or double the recipe and freeze individually. Reheat in a toaster oven and serve with yogurt, nuts, or fresh fruit. Try other fruits such as bananas, mandarin oranges, and mangoes.
Makes 4 servings or 4 waffles.
