Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 0.5 cup Almond flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 cup Low-fat Greek yogurt
• 0.75 cup Milk
• 2 Large eggs
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Honey

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, almond flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Whisk these dry ingredients together until well mixed.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, milk, eggs, olive oil, vanilla extract, and honey. Whisk until smooth and all ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients gradually, stirring gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few small lumps are fine in the batter.

Step 5

Lightly grease the waffle iron with a small amount of olive oil to prevent sticking.

Step 6

Pour the appropriate amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron, spreading slightly with a spatula if necessary. Cook according to your waffle iron's instructions until the waffles are golden brown and fully cooked, usually about 4-5 minutes.

Step 7

Remove the waffles from the iron and repeat with any remaining batter.

Step 8

Serve the warm waffles with a drizzle of honey, a dollop of Greek yogurt, and fresh berries or nuts for added Mediterranean flair.
