This recipe is my staple waffle recipe! My hubby and I got a Kenmore waffle maker for our wedding 14 years ago and this was the recipe that was included with it! I am proud to say my waffle maker has never had to be replaced AND has only ever seen waffles made from scratch..... However, it wasn't until recently that I revamped the recipe to make it a little cleaner!
The clean eating version of the waffles, are best eaten the minute they come off the grill or I find they do get very soft. If you choose to make the waffles the regular way, they are great left over and toasted the next day!
Ingredients:
1 3/4 c. flour
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/3 tsp salt (I use himalayan pink salt)
2 eggs
1 3/4 c. unsweetened almond milk (or 1% dairy milk if not using the clean recipe version)
1/2 c. unsweetened apple sauce (or cooking oil if not using the clean recipe version)
*Coconut oil spray for waffle maker
Method:
Mix the dry ingredients together in one bowl (flour, baking powder, salt). In separate bowl, beat eggs, milk and applesauce together. Slowly add the liquid mixture to the dry mixture and stir, but do not over mix.
Spray waffle maker with coconut oil (you can get this near the regular cooking oil spray). Using a measuring cup, measure out 1/4 cup of waffle mixture and pour on each of the waffle quadrants. Close waffle maker and wait until cooked according to your specific model.
Variation: Cinnamon-Apple
Add 1 apple, peeled and shredded, 5ml of pure vanilla, 2ml cinnamon to the batter.
*Sometimes, I just add in a pinch of cinnamon!
If you are following the 21 Day Fix. 1 waffle = 1 yellow. 1/2 banana = 1 purple, and 2 tsp of maple syrup doesn't count as anything if you didn't add any to your coffee! ;)
