WHOLE WHEAT WAFFLES

"Finding a homemade waffle recipe that's low in calories is difficult," relates Jessica Beare Edmunds of Kingsland, Georgia. "So I modified a recipe I had, substituting fat-free plain yogurt for the oil or margarine. For a little variety, I sometimes use a flavored yogurt instead of plain."

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your waffles.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the waffles tough.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking. This will help the gluten to relax and make the waffles more tender.
  • Preheat your waffle iron properly. This will help the waffles to cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the waffle iron. This will make the waffles cook unevenly.
  • Serve the waffles immediately with your favorite toppings. Waffles are best when they're fresh and hot.

Conclusion:

These whole wheat waffles are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. They're made with simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them plain or topped with your favorite fruits, syrup, or whipped cream, these waffles are sure to please everyone at the table.
