Although it is not a weekend, I made waffles for my kids this morning because we were home and had a little extra time. Usually, it is my husband who makes them for us on Saturday or Sunday mornings. And he really does a better job than I do at them. But this recipe, which I have posted below, is pretty solid, so even those who don’t make waffles very often (like me) can do it. Just remember to preheat and lightly oil your waffle maker before you pour the batter in. I learned that the hard way. There is no white flour to be found in this recipe, which I find very appealing. It’s full of fiber and all the other good things associated with whole wheat flour and oats. According to www.webmd.com/food-recipes/features/reap-the-benefits-of-whole-grains, whole wheat and oats also contain protein, B vitamins, trace minerals, and antioxidants. And there’s only a teaspoon of sugar, yet the waffles are tasty and hearty. If you are looking to fuel up for an active day, these waffles are a great way to do it. Topped with peanut butter or maple syrup, and fresh fruit on the side, they taste even better.
