What does every person love to wake up to in the morning? A delicious and hearty breakfast.... like waffles! Waffles are a super easy way to make a daily routine seem a little more fun even without a special occasion. There are so many ways to top waffles and they go with everything, which is why they are one of my personal favorites.
WAFFLES
2 Eggs, beaten
1 c Milk
1/4 c Canola Oil
1/4 c Apple Sauce
1 1/2 tsp Vanilla
1 c Whole Wheat Flour
1/4 c Wheat Germ
1/2 c All-Purpose Flour
1/4 c Flax Seed Germ
4 tsp Baking Powder
1 tbl Brown Sugar
1/4 tsp Salt
1. In a large bowl, mix together the eggs, milk, applesauce, and vanilla. Beat in remaining ingredients until smooth.
2. Preheat a waffle-iron and coat well with cooking spray. Pour in about 1/4 c of batter for each segment(may be different for different irons). Cook until golden brown and crispy.
3. Remove from waffle-iron and serve immediately. Cover with desired toppings and enjoy.
One of my favorite things about this recipe is that it is already so healthy! Most of the suggestions I would have normally suggested, have already been adapted into this specific recipe. Unfortunately, when talking about a breakfast food like waffles, it is so easy to negate all the health benefits bywhat is put on top. Creating a nice mixture of chopped apples, cinnamon, and a little brown sugar can give you a delicious alternative to syrup without adding too any calories or sugars.
Waffles are one of my all time favorites. I use to eat them every morning. The recipe was slightly different, so I'll have to check this one out!
ReplyDeleteI wish I had a waffle-iron, this makes it sound like I could make them pretty quick. I can imagine it now; waffles, sausage, eggs, and a glass of orange juice.
ReplyDeleteI went to Belgium just a couple of weeks ago and I have been craving waffles ever since. Thanks for the recipe!
