Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 0.25 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your waffle iron according to its manufacturer's instructions.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk them together to ensure they are evenly mixed.
Step 3
In another bowl, whisk together the applesauce, egg, vanilla extract, and low-fat milk until well combined.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the waffles tough.
Step 5
Gently fold the fresh blueberries into the batter until evenly distributed.
Step 6
Lightly coat the waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 7
Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron (the amount will vary based on your waffle iron size) and close the lid.
Step 8
Cook the waffles for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crisp. Cooking times may vary based on your waffle iron. Follow the manufacturer's cues.
Step 9
Once cooked, carefully remove the waffle and keep it warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Step 10
Serve the waffles warm, optionally with a sprinkle of fresh blueberries and a drizzle of maple syrup or a dusting of powdered sugar.
