MULTI-GRAIN WAFFLES

Traditional waffles are a butter-laden, high-carb indulgence, but they make the transition to good fats and smart carbs beautifully, yielding crisp, nutty-tasting waffles with all the sweet pleasure of the original. The batter can also be used for pancakes.

Ingredients

2 cups buttermilk
½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
⅔ cup whole-wheat flour
⅔ cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup toasted wheat germ, or cornmeal
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Mix buttermilk and oats in a medium bowl; let stand for 15 minutes.
Whisk whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, wheat germ (or cornmeal), baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl.
Stir eggs, sugar, oil and vanilla into the oat mixture. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients; mix with a rubber spatula just until moistened.
Coat a waffle iron with cooking spray and preheat. Spoon in enough batter to cover three-fourths of the surface (about 2/3 cup for an 8-by-8-inch waffle iron). Cook until waffles are crisp and golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

WHOLE-GRAIN WAFFLES

These waffles are light but also crispy on the outside from just a touch of oil and a yeasted batter with buttermilk. Oats and whole wheat pastry flour make a heartier waffle that is delicious with fruit, yogurt or syrup.

FOUR GRAIN PANCAKES OR WAFFLES

Four Grain Pancakes or Waffles image

I don't know where this recipe came from, but I am so glad I found it in my "to try" pile. I made them as pancakes for breakfast today. They have a nice texture, not heavy at all (which I was worried about). They make a nice change from traditional pancakes. I did tinker with the recipe a bit, so I put those changes in as an option.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons wheat germ
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch fine salt
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup peanut or walnut oil
Maple syrup

Steps:

Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high.
Whisk the flour with the oats, sugar, wheat germ, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl. In another medium bowl, lightly whisk the eggs, then add the milk, butter, and oil.
Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients with a wooden spoon, to make a batter. Take care not to overwork the batter, it's fine if there are a few lumps.
Pour 1/3 to 1/2 cup of batter per waffle (it depends on the size of your waffle iron) and cook until the outside of the waffle is crisp and inside is cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes. (The time varies depending on the size and spread of a waffle iron). Serve warm with maple syrup. Repeat with remaining batter.
