Chocolate Chip Waffles Low Fat And Healthy Food

CHOCOLATE CHIP WAFFLES

Steps:

• Heat a waffle iron according to your manufacturer's instructions. Be sure to grease it well; again - according to the instructions.
• Mix the dry ingredients together with a whisk, stirring in the chocolate chips last.
• Add in the milk, then the slightly cooled melted butter.
• Add the eggs and stir, just enough to combine - there might be a few lumps in the batter; you just don't want any dry patches or big lumps.
• Pour the amount of batter specified for your waffle iron onto the preheated waffle iron and cook according to your instructions or until the steaming stops.
• For softer waffles, cook less time, for crispy waffles, cook longer.
• In general, if the steaming has dramatically slowed down and you can easily open the waffle iron to remove the waffle without it sticking, it is most likely done.
• Serve as is or with butter or powdered sugar or syrup - whatever you prefer.

HEALTHY WAFFLE RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, lightly beat eggs. Add milk, maple syrup, olive oil, vanilla, baking powder and salt; whisk until well combined. Add whole wheat flour, mix well.
• Preheat waffle maker. If your waffle maker is cast iron you might have to spray it with cooking spray to prevent waffles from sticking but maybe not since batter has enough oil. Try one and see how it comes out.
• Make waffles according to your waffle maker's instructions. Amount of batter depends on the size of your waffle maker. I used about 1/3 cup batter per waffle. For crispier waffles, I also cook a bit past the green Ready indicator.

SKINNY OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat.
• Pull out 2 medium bowls, one for dry ingredients, one for wet.
• In one bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
• Melt the butter in the other bowl. You don't have to melt it all the way, if there are a couple lumps it's okay. Let cool slightly.
• Whisk in the vanilla, then the egg. Whisk in the honey.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and use a wooden spoon to stir until it has just come together (don't overdo it).
• Save out about half of the chocolate chips. Use a sharp knife to roughly chop the remaining chocolate, then fold it into the dough.
• Refrigerate the dough for about 30 minutes, or freeze for about 15 minutes.
• Use your hands to shape the dough into roughly 15 cookies (or 12 if you eat a lot of dough like me...)
• Place on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
• Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-13 minutes, or until they have just started to brown on the edges.
• Once you remove them from the oven, immediately press the remaining chocolate chips into the tops of the cookies.
• Let cool on the pan for a few minutes before removing to a cooling rack.
• Drink with lots of milk!

CHOCOLATE ORANGE WAFFLES

Steps:

• Heat a waffle maker, or if you don't have one, use a griddle pan (see tip, below). Meanwhile, mix the eggs and milk in a jug.
• Combine the flour, cocoa and sugar in a bowl, then gradually whisk in the egg and milk mixture until there are no lumps. Slowly pour in the melted butter, still whisking, then add the orange essence, zest and chocolate.
• Pour a ladleful of the batter into the waffle iron or griddle pan (see below), and cook for 5-6 mins, then repeat - don't worry if the waffles look dark, it's simply the cocoa. Cut in half and top with the oranges, maple syrup, more chocolate and whipped cream.

HEALTHY OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• Place oats into a food processor and blend for 15-20 seconds to lightly pulverize, shredding them into smaller pieces. If you're using quick cooking oats, omit this step.
• Add oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt to a bowl and mix well. Set aside.
• Using a standing mixer, cream butter and brown sugar together on medium/high speed until light and fluffy.
• Scrape the sides of the bowl and then turn the mixer on low speed and slowly add the maple syrup to the butter and sugar. Beat on medium/high until light and fluffy.
• Add egg and continue mixing. Scrape the sides of the bowl, add vanilla, and mix until light and fluffy.
• Slowly add dry ingredients (everything but the chocolate chips) to wet ingredients, 1/4 cup at a time, mixing on low. Last, fold in mini chocolate chips.
• Place the cookie dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to harden and to allow the flour in the cookie dough to hydrate.*
• Using a tablespoon cookie scoop, roll dough into ball and slightly flatten between your palms. Place on cookie sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes.
• Remove cookies from oven, let cool, and enjoy!

CHOCOLATE CHIP WAFFLES (LOW FAT AND HEALTHY!)

Steps:

• Sift dry ingrediants in one bowl, and, using a fork, lightly beat the wet ingrediants in a serapate bowl.

CHOCOLATE CHIP WAFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
• Separate the 2 eggs and put all the whites in a large bowl.
• In a large liquid measuring cup or medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks, milk, vanilla, and 1/4 cup melted butter. Whisk the milk mixture into the flour mixture until a batter is formed. Take care not to over mix the batter.
• Whip the egg whites with a hand-held electric mixer or whisk, until they just begin to hold a loose peak. Scatter the sugar over the whites and continue beating until they hold a soft peak. Fold a third of the egg whites into the batter to lighten the base, then fold in the remaining whites. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
• Brush the inside surface of the iron with butter. Pour in enough batter to barely fill each hole of the waffle iron; the amount will vary depending upon the size of the iron. (Take into consideration that the batter will spread once the lid is closed.) Close and cook until crisp and the waffle iron stops steaming, about 5 minutes. Serve as the waffles come off the iron or transfer to a rack set on a pan in preheated 200 degree F oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• (If the waffle iron is well seasoned or nonstick it is not necessary to brush the inner surface each time before cooking the waffles.)
• Serve the waffles with syrup, jam, fresh fruit, or yogurt. Or turn into a dessert with a scoop of ice cream.
