Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup Rolled oats
- 0.25 cup Cornmeal
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 2 large Eggs
- 1.5 cups Buttermilk
- 3 tablespoons Melted unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup
- as needed for waffle iron Non-stick cooking spray or oil
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, cornmeal, ground flaxseed, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and honey or maple syrup until smooth and well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined; do not over-mix. The batter will be slightly lumpy.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
Scoop the prepared batter onto the heated waffle iron. Use a ladle or measuring cup to portion enough batter to fill the waffle iron without overflowing (typically about 1/2 to 3/4 cup, depending on the size of your waffle iron).
Close the lid and cook according to the waffle iron’s settings, usually 3-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and slightly crisp.
Carefully remove the waffles from the waffle iron using a fork or tongs, and place them on a wire rack to keep them crispy. Do not stack them immediately, as this will cause them to lose their crispness.
Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, yogurt, maple syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
