Multi-Grain Waffles

Susiecat too's Note:

A healthier version of standard waffles, with a little crunch in the texture from the cornmeal. This recipe makes enough to eat and freeze remainders, so you can have quick waffles by toaster reheating throughout the week.

Simply THE BEST multigrain waffles. I've made 'em all but these are perfect and I usually have all the ingredients on hand. Changes (I don't usually do that the first time I make a recipe but did a little today)- didn't have enough oats so I used some instant oatmeal that is horrid on it's own, i don't use white flour, added some flax meal, cinnamon and a bit of stevia because I thought it would need a touch of sweetness. The oats were fine, always love flax but the stevia was completely unnecessary. Oh, and I always separate eggs, beat the whites and fold them in at the end. Going to try decreasing the oil next time or maybe use apple sauce or pur?ed pumpkin. They're just really good so no changes are really needed at all. Oh and all 3 boys loved, which never happens, so my search is over! WOOT! TYVM <3

Made 1/2 recipe using whole wheat pastry flour both flours, egg beaters for the eggs and 1 T brown sugar, 1/2 t vanilla. It made 6 - 8" round waffles. Love the crunch of the cornmeal. Excellent with butter and strawberry jam.

I really liked these! I made the batter as directed (forgot the oil though...oops!) and made them into mini pancakes (2 tbls each). The kids loved them. Even with the forgotten oil they turned out great. A really nice combination of grains. The batter is thin at first, but once it sits for 5-6 minutes it thickens up (I'm assuming from the oatmeal). I will make these again and I bet they'll be even better...that is if I don't screw them up! Thank you!
