{Whole Wheat Belgian Waffles}

This was a delicious breakfast! We decided to serve them Bed and Breakfast style, with fresh strawberries, strawberry sauce, whipped cream and a little sprinkle of powdered sugar. Yummy!










1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbs sugar
1 large egg
1 1/2 cups lukewarm milk
1/3 cup melted butter

Preheat your iron while you make the waffle batter.

Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and butter or oil.

Mix together the wet and dry ingredients, stirring just until combined.

Cook the waffles as directed in the instructions that came with your waffle iron.

{Waffles with Cinnamon Syrup}

These are really good, but what is amazing is the syrup!

2 cups flour

1 tbs sugar

2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

3 eggs, separated

2 cups milk

1/4 cup vegetable oil

Cinnamon Syrup:

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup light corn syrup

1/4 cup water

1 5 ounce can evaporated milk

1 tsp vanilla

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

In a bowl combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Combine the egg yolks, milk, and oil stir into the dry ingredients until well mixed. In a small mixing bowl, beat egg whites until still peaks form, fold those into batter. Bake in a preheated waffle iron.

For the syrup, combine sugar, corn syrup and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, cook and stir for 2 minutes, (it will thicken a bit, but thicken much more once cooled)

remove from the heat and stir in the milk, vanilla and cinnamon. Serve with the waffles.
