Top these hearty waffles with pure maple syrup and additional blueberries for a sensational brunch dish!"

Excellent, easy waffles! I love a healthy breakfast like this that doesn't remind me of straw and sticks. The oats gave a slightly chewy texture and with the berries, it had the perfect sweetness. We will enjoy these many times! Thanks for sharing.
