Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 0.5 cup Rolled oats
• 0.25 cup Cornmeal
• 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 2 large Eggs
• 1.5 cups Buttermilk
• 3 tablespoons Melted unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup
• 0 as needed for waffle iron Non-stick cooking spray or oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, cornmeal, ground flaxseed, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and honey or maple syrup until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined; do not over-mix. The batter will be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray or a small amount of oil.

Step 6

Scoop the prepared batter onto the heated waffle iron. Use a ladle or measuring cup to portion enough batter to fill the waffle iron without overflowing (typically about 1/2 to 3/4 cup, depending on the size of your waffle iron).

Step 7

Close the lid and cook according to the waffle iron’s settings, usually 3-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and slightly crisp.

Step 8

Carefully remove the waffles from the waffle iron using a fork or tongs, and place them on a wire rack to keep them crispy. Do not stack them immediately, as this will cause them to lose their crispness.

Step 9

Repeat the process with the remaining batter.

Step 10

Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, yogurt, maple syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
