My toddler begged me for waffles this morning. I searched around for a healthy waffle recipe as we all know waffles aren’t the most nutritious. I stumbled across this one and I’m really glad I did. I try to steer away from added sugar since I also have a baby to feed at home as well so I only used 1 tbsp in this recipe and they still turned out great. My daughter and son loved them and I feel good about what’s I fed them this morning.
Hi Natalie, I made these waffles for the first time tonight for my husband and 3 yr old. They both loved them! I thought they’d be really dense but they were quite light and had a nice crispness to them. I used 1 cup each cow’s milk and almond milk as that’s what I had, 2.5 tbsp sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, 2 tsp vanilla, and 1 tsp cinnamon. I also added 3/4 c wild blueberries. I’m sure without my minor changes they would’ve been just as delicious. The nutty flavour from the flax made the house smell amazing. Thank you so much for giving me a recipe I know I’ll make for years to come 🙂
