I got a waffle maker for Christmas, and I didn't even know I wanted one! But so far, I am loving it. We had the standard waffles yesterday, and today I tried out the whole grain version. Super simple, and the nonstick waffle iron doesn't really need much cleaning.
Whole Grain Banana Waffles with Blackberry Syrup
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup oats
2 tsp baking powder
1 1/4 cups milk
1 egg
1 mashed banana
Then, I threw some leftover blackberries from the refrigerator into the blender with a 
couple tablespoons of maple syrup. The waffles were delicious, but I did have to add some butter. I would normally opt not to do the butter on top, but these waffles tasted a bit too healthy. I forgot to add the baking powder- I wonder if that had anything to do with it?

I've got to send out a big Thanks for the shout-out from Kelly's Grateful Apron!
Can't wait to sample your waffles!
ReplyDeletePortland is all about waffles apparently. There are even waffle carts where you can get waffle sandwiches. I had a fancy waffle once that had sweet curry and asparagus on it w/ raisins. The possibilities are limitless!
