Is anyone in your family a die hard waffle lover? Do you buy frozen packaged waffles weekly at the market? Do you have a picky eater who rarely eats anything else for breakfast? Whether you can say yes to any of those questions or not, this recipe is perfect for a family, for a special breakfast on the weekend and even just to make ahead and freeze for during the week!

These make very LARGE waffles so really half of one is all you really need. But if you or the kids are feeling indulgent enjoy the whole thing, with syrup or without. 🙂

My oldest child is the pickiest one in the family and loves waffles. I’ve never been able to make them at home because I never had a waffle iron, BUT they bought me one for Mother’s Day!

Buying healthier waffles from Whole Foods is nice as an option but I really wanted to make my own. These aren’t gluten free as of yet and they aren’t super low in calories or fat as of yet, BUT I plan on working on this basic recipe to adapt it. For now my family loves these and I’m more than happy to give them something that is much healthier than frozen packaged waffles.Additional Notes:

You could probably use regular whole wheat flour, but pastry flour is much finer. It makes a nice and light waffle as opposed to a denser heavier waffle you will get when using regular whole wheat. You can purchase it at Whole Foods or online using my discount code (YAJ035)  at iherb.com.
