Servings: 8 -10 waffles

Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups milk
  • 4 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoon molasses
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat waffle iron to medium heat (I usually do the 4 out of 6 setting)
  • In a large bowl, whisk together dry ingredients.
  • In a microwave safe bowl, add butter and microwave for another 30-45 seconds or until melted. Add milk and microwave for another minute or so.
  • Whisk in egg, molasses and vanilla to milk and butter mixture.
  • Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and stir gently (don't over-mix).
  • Add batter to heated waffle iron.
  • Remove cooked waffle and place on a cooling rack without stacking. Stacking causes waffles to become soggy/limp due to the steam.
  • Top with yogurt, fruit and 100% pure maple syrup.

Notes

These waffles freeze well, portion them out in bags and reheat in the toaster.
