Ingredients

    1 cup White whole wheat flour
    1 cup All Purpose Unbleached Enriched Pre-Sifted Flour
    1/2 tsp table salt, iodized
    2 TB Trader Joe's Turbinado Raw Cane Sugar
    1 1/2 tsp baking soda
    1 tsp cinnamon, ground
    1 tsp nutmeg, ground
    1 tsp allspice, ground
    Buttermilk substitute:
    1 3/4 cup Silk Organic Soymilk, unsweetened
    1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice, fresh
    Equivalent of two eggs from Crystal Farms All Whites 100% Liquid Egg Whites
    4 tbsp (1/2 stick)lightly salted butter
    1/2 tsp pure Vanilla extract
    1 cup raisins
    1 cup wanluts, small pieces or chopped small
    1 1/2 cup carrot, grated

    Cooking spray for waffle iron.
    I used a waffle maker that made 2 square waffles that could be put in the toaster after being frozen.

    Prior to preparation of waffle batter, make sure your beaters and bowl are free of grease and oil, very clean, and toss them in the refrigerator to chill. This makes sure the egg will rise.

Directions

1. Bloom the spices in butter: Heat 4 TB butter in skillet over medium heat until melted, 1-2 minutes. Continue to heat butter until it is light brown and has a nutty aroma, 2-4 minutes. Add spices and continue to cook, stirring occaisonally, 15 seconds. Remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
2. Use a whisk to combine flours, salt, sugar, and baking soda in a medium mixing bowl.
3. Combine unsweetened soy milk and lemon juice in a glass measure. Add vanilla extract. Stir in cooled spiced butter. Stir we t ingredients into dry. Spray waffle iron and preheat it.
4. Beat egg whites in pre-chilled bowl until they hold soft peaks. Stir them gently into the batter. Then carefully fold in raisins, walnuts, and grated carrot.
5. Spread a ladle full of batter into center of waffle plate and bake as directed by manufacturer of your waffle iron. Spray iron with cooking spray as needed between waffles.

Serve waffles with maple syrup and/or Maple Walnut Cream Cheese Spread (separate recipe).
