Healthy waffles for breakfast.
Course Breakfast, Dessert
- 1 1/2 cups milk alternative or, alternatively, milk
- 1/2 pkt active dry yeast 1 1/8 tsp
- 1/4 cup neutral oil like canola
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp sugar
- 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 1/4 cup coarsely ground flax seeds sold as "flax meal"
Whisk all ingredients together in a bowl the night before you'd like your waffles.
Cover the bowl with a dish towel, and let sit on the counter at room temperature overnight.
The batter will rise and fall overnight (don't worry, it will still rise in the waffle iron). In the morning, mix again.
The consistency will be somewhat thicker than a standard waffle batter. Heat a waffle iron, and grease well. Pour the batter into the hot iron (about 1/2-3/4 cup batter for a standard size iron), and cook according to manufacturer's instructions.
