Your recipe was attractive to me because they are "guilt free" and with the addition of some alternative flours they were easily gluten free as well. The flours were a combination of brown rice flour blend, chia seeds, milled flax seeds and buckwheat flour. I used Recipe #40939 instead of the applesauce. The eggs were separated and the egg whites whipped then folded into the batter. With the lack of oil these waffles aren't as crisp as some but I am guessing they will freeze well and then crisp up when toasted. Made for PAC Fall 2011.
