Multi-Grain Waffles on Yahoo! Food

Try my twist......

This looks just like the recipe I already use, except I add soy flour to replace the all purpose. It\'s a great way to get some of those 25 grams of soy protein a day, and to have the whole grains too. The buttermilk is really a good addition, and is not as rich as the name suggests. It adds a delightful tang and a lot in the way of calcium and you don\'t even know it. I have 4 kids, so we always have to at least quadruple these recipes and I freeze them and reheat in the toaster. They really are better than those eggo things, and much more filling, cheaper, and way tastier. You can afford to get the real maple syrup if you make your own waffles.

One thing you could try though is separating the eggs, mix the yolks as whole eggs in it, but then fold the stiff beaten whites into the finished batter. The result is a fluffier, lighter, crisper waffle. Fresh or frozen (IMO frozen is better, fresher, cheaper and healthier) berries would be great on or in these.

I have even made sandwiches for my kids with them. Peanut butter and jelly takes on a whole new life made with waffles. Try marshmallow creme and nutella for a real treat. Peanut butter and chocolate ganache. Raspberry jam and cream cheese.

Use them in desserts- toast one, place it on a plate dusted with powdered sugar, top with whipped cream or ice cream and top with chocolate sauce, berries, or caramel, and a cherry. Viola, you\'re a genius!

Email me with your ideas if you would, I would love to hear your thoughts...

I made this recipe for my family on new years day. We loved it! It is so much better than regular waffles, more satisfying. The second time I made it I added 2 T. of ground flaxseed and used plain yogurt instead of buttermilk.
