Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Some models may have a waffle setting you can use to ensure consistent baking.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole-grain wheat flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
- In another bowl, beat the egg yolks slightly. Then, add the milk, vanilla extract, and applesauce. Stir until well mixed.
- Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; it's okay if the batter is a little lumpy, as overmixing can result in tough waffles.
- In a separate clean and dry bowl, beat the egg whites until they hold soft peaks. This can be done using a hand mixer at medium speed for about 3-4 minutes. Soft peaks mean the tips will curl when you lift the beaters.
- Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter. This will help to keep your waffles light and airy.
- Fold the frozen blueberries into the batter, distributing them evenly. Make sure they are still frozen to prevent the batter from turning blue.
- Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron with non-stick spray or brush with a little oil. Pour the batter into the waffle iron, using a ladle or measuring cup to ensure even distribution. Each waffle iron will vary, but it's typically about ¾ cup of batter per waffle.
- Cook according to your waffle iron’s instructions, usually until the waffle is golden brown and crisp (generally 4-5 minutes).
- Carefully remove the waffles and place them on a wire rack or plate. For best results, serve immediately. Top with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, a dollop of yogurt, or extra fresh blueberries.
- Relish your delightful Whole Wheat Blueberry Waffles as a hearty breakfast or a tasty brunch treat!
Tips:
- Preheat your waffle iron while you are preparing the batter to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- Gently fold in the blueberries to avoid crushing them, which will prevent the batter from turning blue and ensure even distribution of blueberries in the waffles.
- To make your waffles even fluffier, ensure that the egg whites are beaten to stiff peaks before folding them into the batter.
- Use cooking spray or a light brush of oil on your waffle iron to prevent sticking, especially with whole-grain batter.
- If using fresh blueberries instead of frozen, coat them lightly in flour before adding to the batter to prevent them from sinking to the bottom.
- Serve your waffles immediately for the best texture. If keeping warm, place in a single layer on a wire rack in a low oven to maintain crispiness.
Our Whole Wheat Blueberry Waffle Delight brings together wholesome ingredients for a breakfast treat that’s both healthy and delicious. With simple preparation steps, you can easily whip up these waffles, ensuring a great start to your day. Enjoy them with your favorite toppings and savor the combination of nutty whole grains and sweet, juicy blueberries in every bite!
