Provided by Cookie and Kate

Categories     Breakfast

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 cup whole wheat flour (you can also use spelt, rye, cornmeal or buckwheat)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups buttermilk (make your own: add 2 tablespoons of vinegar or lemon juice to 2 cups milk, and let sit for 5 minutes)
3 eggs
1 tablespoon maple syrup (or honey)
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter (original recipe called for one full stick of butter)
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • To keep the cooked waffles warm while you finish cooking the rest, reheat your oven to 200 degrees and heat up your waffle iron.
  • Mix the dry ingredients (flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt) in a large mixing bowl.
  • In a large measuring cup, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs and syrup or honey.
  • Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir just until they are mixed. Add the melted butter and mix well.
  • Pour batter into your waffle iron until the batter reaches the edges of the iron. Cook until crisp and golden.
  • Place each waffle on a rack in the oven in a single layer to keep them warm until you're ready to serve. Five minutes in the oven may actually help them get a little crispier.

BELLA'S WHOLE WHEAT BELGIAN WAFFLES



Bella's Whole Wheat Belgian Waffles image

A good friend gave me this recipe and it produces a waffle that is more substantial. It's not super light and fluffy like other recipes. They are more like "Eggo" waffles (in terms of texture, not sweetness). Makes 16 (4 1/2" X 4") waffles. When preparing them for freezing, I undercook them slightly, so they don't burn in the toaster.

Provided by Kelly A

Categories     Breakfast

Time 45m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups whole wheat flour
1/4 cup sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups milk
3 eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl.
  • Add milk, eggs and oil to the dry ingredients and mix until combined.
  • Use approximately 1/3 cup of batter per waffle.
  • Bake on waffle iron as per manufacturers instructions.
  • Note: My original posting of this recipe did not include salt. I didn't really miss having salt in this recipe, but I thought the first reviewer of this recipe probably had a point about blandness, so I amended the recipe to include 3/4 teaspoon of salt. Other comments have prompted me to add vanilla to the recipe, with wonderful results. Thanks for your comments!

WHOLE WHEAT OAT WAFFLES



Whole Wheat Oat Waffles image

Healthy whole wheat pastry flour is combined with wonderful oat flour for a very yummy waffle.

Provided by Antipex

Categories     100+ Breakfast and Brunch Recipes     Waffle Recipes

Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ cup whole wheat pastry flour
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup oat flour
¼ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 eggs, separated
1 ½ cups milk
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat a waffle maker according to manufacturer's directions.
  • Whisk whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, oat flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Whisk egg yolks, milk, canola oil, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl. Beat egg whites in a third bowl (not plastic) with an electric mixer until soft peaks form when you lift the beaters straight out of the beaten eggs, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour the milk mixture into the well; mix batter until smooth. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter, retaining as much volume as possible. Let batter stand until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
  • Pour 1/2 cup of batter, or amount recommended by the manufacturer, onto the waffle maker; close lid and bake waffle until browned and crisp, 2 to 4 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients. Fresh eggs, milk, and butter will give your waffles the best flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the waffles tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking. This will allow the gluten in the flour to relax, which will also help to prevent tough waffles.
  • Cook the waffles on a hot waffle iron. A hot waffle iron will help to create crispy waffles.
  • Don't overcrowd the waffle iron. Cooking too many waffles at once will make them soggy.
  • Serve the waffles immediately. Waffles are best when served hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Whole grain waffles are a delicious and healthy breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be topped with a variety of fruits, nuts, and syrups. Whole grain waffles are a good source of fiber, protein, and vitamins. They are also a low-fat and low-calorie food. If you are looking for a healthy and delicious breakfast option, whole grain waffles are a great choice.
