ingredients
-
Waffle
- 354.88 ml all-purpose flour
- 118.29 ml whole wheat flour
- 118.29 ml finely chopped toasted pecans
- 9.85 ml baking powder
- 1.23 ml ground nutmeg
- 1.23 ml salt
- 29.58 ml butter, melted
- 78.78 ml light-brown sugar, packed
- 2 eggs
- 295.73 ml milk
-
Cherry Sauce
- 473.18 ml pitted dark sweet cherries or 340.19 g frozen dark sweet cherries
- 118.29 ml maple syrup
- 59.14 ml honey or 59.14 ml cherry jam
- 14.79 ml cornstarch
- 14.79 ml water
directions
- Cherry Sauce: Combine cherries with maple syrup and honey in a small saucepan.
- Bring to simmering (meanwhile, start toasting your pecans for the waffles and make the waffle batter).
- Dissolve cornstarch in water and stir into cherry mixture.
- Cook, stirring, 1 minute or until thickened.
- Remove from heat.
- Makes 2 1/2 cups.
- Waffles: Heat waffle iron. Heat oven to 225. (I heated my oven at 350 to toast the pecans and didn't bother heating at 225 because there weren't any leftovers to keep warm).
- Combine flours, toasted pecans, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt in a large bowl.
- Make a well in the center.
- Whisk butter and brown sugar in a medium-size bowl until blended.
- Whisk in eggs and milk.
- Add to well and stir to blend.
- Let stand 5 minutes.
- Coat waffle iron lightly with nonstick cooking spray (if my iron needs coating, I use my butter wrappers to coat instead because I prefer the butter flavor and it makes good use of all the butter).
- Spoon batter onto iron.
- Cover and cook 4 minutes or until browned.
- Remove waffles. Stack between sheets of waxed paper on a baking sheet and keep warm in heated 225 oven (I skipped this step).
- Repeat with remaining batter and serve with sauce.
- Combine flo.

I love to try new recipes, and this is a wonderful site to find new additions. I rarely make the same thing twice because it's so much fun to try something different. My life long dream is to travel the world and eat my way around it.
