Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 large Egg whites
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons Applesauce (unsweetened)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 as_needed Non-stick cooking spray
- 4 tablespoons Low-fat cream cheese
- 0.5 cup Fresh fruit (such as strawberries or blueberries), chopped
- 1 teaspoon Honey (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In another bowl, mix egg whites, unsweetened almond milk, applesauce, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking until the batter is smooth. Avoid overmixing.
Preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and lightly spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
Pour a small amount of batter onto the waffle iron (just enough to create a thin layer that will cover the bottom).
Add 1 tablespoon of low-fat cream cheese to the center of each waffle mold and top with about 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh fruit.
Spoon another small layer of waffle batter over the filling, ensuring the filling is fully covered.
Close the waffle iron and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy. Cooking time may vary depending on your waffle iron.
Carefully remove the stuffed waffles from the waffle iron and repeat the process with the remaining batter and filling until all waffles are prepared.
Drizzle the waffles with a small amount of honey if desired and serve warm. Enjoy your guilt-free stuffed waffles!
