Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups of whole wheat flour
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1/4 cup butter melted
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp honey
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle maker so it's ready to go when your batter is mixed.
- In a standing mixer, combine all the ingredients. Start with the dry ingredients: whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Give these a quick mix. Then add the wet ingredients: eggs, milk, melted butter, and honey. Mix until the batter is smooth.
- Once your waffle maker is heated and the batter is ready, lightly grease the surface of the waffle maker with a little butter or non-stick spray. This helps in getting that perfect, golden-brown finish without sticking.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the waffle maker. Adjust the amount based on the size of your waffle maker as needed.
- Close the lid and let it cook for about 1 1/2 minutes, or until the waffle is beautifully golden and crisp. The timing can vary slightly depending on your waffle maker, so it might take a trial or two to get it just right.
- Serve hot! These waffles are fantastic with a variety of toppings. Try them with a dollop of Greek yogurt, a drizzle of honey, or your favorite seasonal fruits. For an extra touch of indulgence, a little sprinkle of cinnamon sugar right before serving makes them truly heavenly.
Notes
Whole wheat flour is a great source of fiber, which helps in keeping you full longer and stabilizes blood sugar levels. Cinnamon not only adds a warming flavor but also brings its anti-inflammatory properties to the table.
