Multi-Grain Waffles

"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."

  1. These were delicious. Made a couple of changes. Added two mashed bananas to the wet ingredients, used only whole wheat flour and reduced the flour to 1 1/2 cups and then used 1/2 cup of coconut flour in its place. Just the right hint of sweetness! I think next time I will sub another 1/4 cup of the flour for flax meal and reduce the oil to 1/4 cup.
     
  2. These were great! I added some blueberries. Might add in a little sugar next time. Have the rest in the freezer for a quick breakfast for my toddler son who has to have it "right now!"
     
  3. 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
     
  4. 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.
     
  5. 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!

  1. I loved these. The cornmeal was so nice in this recipe, lending crunch and sweetness. I didn't feel it needed any added sweetener at all. To replace the 6 T oil called for, I used 1/4 c flax meal and 2 T canola oil with no ill effect. My 6-inch round waffle iron made 12 waffles, measuring 1/2 cup batter per waffle. The extras are in my freezer. I can't wait for breakfast tomorrow!

Two of my three cats. <img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/512309/shayn%20ying.jpg"> And my *biggest* and *BEST* cat of all: <img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/512309/gabby%206th%20birthday%20leopard.jpg"> I am a busy mom of small children by day, and I work part-time as a doctor at night. I am trying to find the ever-elusive balance between career-track and mommy-track. Cooking and baking bring me joy, and I love to see my kids eat healthy homemade foods. I have relatives with a local organic farm, so I use their produce as much as possible. Yum! After some trial and error with rating recipes for various contests and tag games, I think I will from now on stick to the definitions provided by Zaar: 3 stars means I liked it! I might have had to make some adjustments, though. 4 stars means I LOVED it! Almost no adjusting was necessary. 5 stars means one of the most outstanding things I have ever tasted! Stands, as is, as a fabulous dish. I can't imagine giving only 1 or 2 stars -- that would mean that I either picked a recipe that I should have known wouldn't suit my taste, or that I really messed up while making the recipe. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z205/jubespage/kid-friendlytag-participation2.gif"> <img src="http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a254/Sharon123/Copyoftag300-banner.jpg" border="0" alt="Susie's Banner for Newest Zaar Tag"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/Zaar%20World%20Tour%204/ZWTAB-tg.gif"> <img src="http://img355.imageshack.us/img355/3476/mybanner483b81c1ea2dfah7.jpg"> <img src="http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/DesertRose.jpg"><img src="http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y164/lauralie41/cookbookswapspring08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"><a href="http://s7.photobucket.com/albums/y254/Missymop/?action=view¤t=kidfrecipeswap.jpg" target="_blank"> <img src="http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y254/Missymop/kidfrecipeswap.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg"><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg"> <img src="http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r317/j_welcome/pics2/food/PRMRcopy.jpg"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/RSC%20Banners/RSC11-SusieCat.jpg"> <img src="http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r271/copperhorse58/Zaar%20Food%20Photos/Food%20Photos%202008/herbspicesticker.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/CV.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Ingredients/Other/photo-swap-7sticky.jpg"> <img src="http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj240/marienixon_715/kittencaljpg.jpg"> <img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/1956/holidaylightssticker.jpg"> <img src="http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e347/Saturn6666/Other/tagforpage1.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket">
