Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1.75 cups milk
- 2 large eggs
- 0.25 cups unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter can remain slightly lumpy.
Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries using a spatula.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray, if required.
Scoop the batter into the preheated waffle iron, using enough to fill the waffle iron without overflowing. Spread the batter out slightly, if necessary.
Close the lid and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp. Adjust cooking time based on your waffle iron's specifications.
Carefully remove the waffles from the iron and transfer them to a plate. Keep them warm by placing them in a low-temperature oven, if desired, while you cook the remaining batter.
Repeat with the remaining batter until all the waffles are made.
Serve the waffles warm, topped with additional blueberries, a drizzle of maple syrup, or your favorite toppings.
