Blueberry Whole Wheat Waffles
May 12, 2018
Waffles have become a menu item for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. A simple addition of fruit elevates the mundane to magnificent! Blueberries are nutritious and antioxidant rich.
Ingredients
- 3 c. whole wheat flour (I use King Authur)
- 1 ½ t. baking powder
- 1 t. salt
- 2 T. sugar
- 3 c. milk
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 t. vanilla
- 1 stick of butter (melted)
- 3 egg whites (whipped to a soft peak)
- 1 pint fresh blueberries
Instructions
-
Separate egg yolks and egg whites into separate bowls, set aside.
-
Combine first five ingredients and whisk to break up any clumps.
-
Add milk, egg yolks, vanilla, whisk until thoroughly combined.
-
Add melted butter while whisking constantly.
-
In a metal, glass, or ceramic bowl whip egg whites to a soft peak.
*A plastic bowl may be coated with an oil residue and prevent egg whites from whipping correctly. Use a stand mixer with whisk attachment, or a hand mixer, whisk attachment if available, or a hand whisk.
-
Gently fold in egg whites.
-
Gently fold in blueberries.
-
Spray your waffle iron with a non-stick cooking spray even if using a non-stick waffle iron. This will prevent blueberries from sticking.
