Ingredients

    3/4 cup whole wheat flour
    3/4 cup white flour
    3/4 tsp baking soda
    2 tsp baking powder
    2 tbsp sugar
    1/2 tsp salt
    2 tbsp ground flaxseed*
    2 tbsp chia seed*
    1.5 cup buttermilk**
    1/4 cup Smart Balance 50/50 butter blend, melted
    2 tsp vanilla extract
    3 large eggs

    *Flax and chia are optional, but they add nutrition without affecting the taste, in my opinion.

    **I combined 1.5 tbsp vinegar w/1.5 cup skim milk (let sit for 5 minutes) to imitate buttermilk - that's what the calories are based on.

Directions

Preheat George Foreman with waffle plates in place (or your choice of waffle iron). Meanwhile, combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a smaller bowl, beat eggs and then add other wet ingredients. Next, add wet ingredients to dry and mix until just blended.

For the George Foreman G5, pout 2/3 cup batter for each of the two plates and let cook for about 6-7 minutes. Follow manufacturer's instructions if using any other type of waffle iron.

Enjoy!!
