Ingredients
1 cup whole wheat flour1/2 cup white flour1 cup rolled oats (measure then grind)1 Tbsp baking powder1 Tbsp cinnamon1 tsp allspice1/4 tsp salt2 Tbsp granulated sugar4 egg whites1.5 cups nonfat milk1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce~Syrup~12 large strawberries, quartered1/3 cup maple syrup
Combine dry ingredients except for the sugar. Mix well. Add applesauce and milk and stir until just, but not fully, combined.
.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites and sugar until they reach stiff peak stage. Gently fold the egg whites into the waffle batter until combined.
.
Follow the instructions for your waffle maker. Note that cooking time will probably be less than normal due to that lack of fat in the recipe.
.
In a microwave safe dish, microwave the strawberries until they are soft and have released some liquid (~ 45 seconds). Add the maple syrup. I blend them together to make a smooth strawberry topping, but you can leave it chunky too.
.
My waffle maker makes sheets of 4 standard waffles per sheet. A serving is 2 waffle squares.
.
Nutritional information for this recipe includes the strawberry syrup.
.
NOTE: You do not have to grind the oats to a powder. You can leave the rolled oats whole. I just like having the oats fully incorporated into the waffles. I grind the oats with an immersion blender. But you can also used a regular blender or a food processor.
