Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 2 cups Buttermilk
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- Maple syrup or honey (optional, for serving)
- Fresh fruit or toppings of choice (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a spatula or large spoon until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Lightly grease or spray the waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray, if needed.
Ladle the recommended amount of batter (as specified by your waffle iron instructions) onto the hot waffle iron and close the lid.
Cook the waffles until they are golden brown and crisp on the outside, typically 4-5 minutes per waffle, depending on your waffle iron.
Carefully remove the cooked waffles and place them on a wire rack to prevent them from becoming soggy. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with maple syrup, honey, fresh fruit, or other favorite toppings. Enjoy!
