Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 15 mins
Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1/4 cup coconut oil (melted)
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, flaxseed meal, and baking powder. Whisk together dry ingredients until well blended and no lumps remain.
- In a separate bowl, mix melted coconut oil, honey, and almond milk. Stir until ingredients are completely incorporated and smooth.
- Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some small lumps are okay.
- Gently fold in mixed berries, distributing them evenly throughout the waffle batter.
- Preheat your waffle iron to medium-high heat and lightly grease with cooking spray or additional coconut oil.
- Pour approximately 1/2 cup of batter into the center of the waffle iron, spreading it evenly. Close the iron and cook until golden brown and crispy, typically 3-4 minutes.
- Carefully remove waffle and repeat with remaining batter. Keep cooked waffles warm in a low-temperature oven (200°F) while preparing the rest.
- Serve warm, optionally topped with additional fresh berries, a drizzle of honey, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
Tips
- Measure Accurately: For the best texture, make sure to measure your ingredients accurately, especially the flour and liquid components. Too much flour can make your waffles dense.
- Don’t Overmix: When combining the wet and dry ingredients, mix until just combined. A few lumps are perfectly fine; overmixing can lead to tough waffles.
- Berry Bliss: Feel free to experiment with different types of berries! Raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries all work wonderfully and can add unique flavors to your waffles.
- Preheat the Waffle Iron: Make sure your waffle iron is preheated to medium-high heat before adding the batter. This ensures a crispy exterior and fluffy interior.
- Keep Them Warm: If you're making multiple batches, keep the cooked waffles warm in a low-temperature oven (around 200°F) while you finish cooking the rest.
- Toppings Galore: Serve your waffles warm with a variety of toppings like extra fresh berries, a drizzle of honey, or a dollop of Greek yogurt for added creaminess and flavor.
- Make it Ahead: These waffles can be made ahead of time and frozen. Simply reheat in the toaster or oven for a quick breakfast on busy days!
