Ingredients
1 c. whole wheat flour1 c. MINUS 2 T. white flour2 T. wheat germ4 t. baking powder1/2 t. cinnamon1/2 t. ground cloves2 eggs, separated1 1/2 c. skim milk1 c. pureed cooked sweet potato1 T. olive oil1 T. unsweetened applesauce2 T. ground flaxseed meal1 T. Sugar in the Raw1/2 c. finely chopped walnuts
Directions
In a large bowl, mix flours, baking powder, wheat germ, and spices. In a separate bowl, mix eggs yolks, sweet potato, milk, oil, flax, and applesauce. Pour wet ingredients over dry and mix only until moistened. In an electric mixer beat egg whites with sugar until soft peaks form. Fold egg whites and walnuts into batter. Pour batter onto a heated, nonstick lightly greased waffle iron. Cook until golden brown or until iron stops steaming. This will depend on your iron but the flax will make these brown quicker than not, my iron takes about 3 1/2 minutes. These freeze well, lay in a single layer on a cookie sheet to flash freeze. When ready to eat microwave for 30 seconds then toast on a light setting.
