Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup spelt flour (60g) (substitution: Gluten-Free Waffles Recipe)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/16 tsp pure stevia OR 2 tbsp liquid sweetener (like agave or pure maple syrup)
- 1 tbsp milk of choice (increase to 3 tbsp if using stevia)
- 1/4 cup plus 3 tbsp applesauce
- 2 tsp oil OR 1 tbsp more applesauce (Use the applesauce if you want fat-free waffles.)
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
Healthy Waffles Recipe: Combine first 5 ingredients in a mixing bowl, and stir well. In a separate bowl, stir together remaining ingredients. Grease a waffle iron with oil or oil spray: be sure to grease very well if using the fat-free version. Preheat according to manufacturer’s instructions for your machine. Pour wet ingredients into dry, and stir until evenly combined. When iron is hot, pour half of the batter into the center of the iron, and close the lid. (My machine has a light that goes out when the waffle is done. Do not lift the lid before the waffle is done cooking.) Serve with your favorite waffle toppings – my homemade squirt whipped cream recipe is linked above the second photo in this post. Makes 2 waffles, and you can easily double the recipe.
Total Time: 10m Yield: 2 waffles
