We loved these healthy, good-for-you waffles! Breakfast can sometimes be the unhealthiest meal of the day, so anytime I can make it a little bit healthier, I'm all for it. These waffles fill that bill! With oat bran, whole wheat flour, eggs, skim milk and no sugar, I didn't feel guilty eating them. I made them as written, adding 1/2 tsp. cinnamon to the dry ingredients. Also, after folding in the egg whites, I let the batter sit for about 10-15 mins. to thicken up a bit. They cooked up fluffy and delicious. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe...it is definitely a keeper! **Made for 2013 Football Pool**Reply

These waffles were fantastic. The beaten egg whites gave it a fluffiness despite having the oat bran and whole wheat. For those worried about consistency, let it sit for a minute and it thickens up as the oat bran absorbs some liquid. Very tasty and even the toddler loved them! Thanks for posting. made for Zaar chef alphabet soup tag game.Reply
