Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large bowl, mix together the whole wheat flour, oat flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until they are frothy.
Add the almond milk, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract to the egg whites, and whisk until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix as this can make the waffles dense.
Lightly coat the waffle iron with cooking spray.
Pour a portion of the batter onto the preheated waffle iron, enough to cover the surface but not too much that it overflows.
Close the waffle iron and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy.
Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles warm, topped with fresh fruits, yogurt, or a drizzle of honey if desired.
