These are so good, no one will ever know how healthy they are. I don't tell anyone! I had extra strawberries and wanted to make waffles with them, but couldn't find a recipe version that I liked, so I tweaked a few and came up with this one. This makes 3 double waffles, which is 3 servings in my house. Ingredients:
1/2 cup whole wheat flour |
1/2 cup all-purpose flour |
2 tablespoons ground flax seeds |
2 teaspoons sugar substitute (splenda) |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1 cup sliced strawberry |
1/4 cup skim milk |
2 tablespoons natural applesauce or 2 tablespoons plain fat-free yogurt |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 large egg |
Directions:
1. Combine flours, flax seed, Splenda, baking powder and salt into a medium-sized bowl with a whisk. Form a well in the center in preparation of wet ingredients.
2. Into a blender, place strawberries, milk, applesauce (or yogurt), vanilla and egg and puree until smooth.
3. Add the wet strawberry mixture to the dry flour mixture and whisk just until all is moistened. Do not overmix.
4. Spoon about 1/2 cup batter onto preheated waffle iron that's been coated with cooking spray. Cook until done and crispy.
5. Serve hot with toppings of your choice: we like sugar-free syrup, Cool Whip Free and extra sliced strawberries.
