Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 0.5 cup Rolled oats
• 0.25 cup Cornmeal
• 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1.5 cups Buttermilk
• 2 Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened applesauce
• 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0 Non-stick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, cornmeal, ground flaxseed, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, eggs, applesauce, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Whisk until well blended.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 6

Pour the appropriate amount of batter onto the center of the waffle iron, spreading it evenly if needed (the amount will depend on the size of your waffle iron).

Step 7

Close the waffle iron and cook the waffles until golden brown and crisp, typically 4-5 minutes per batch.

Step 8

Carefully remove the waffles using tongs or a fork. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 9

Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, yogurt, nut butter, or additional honey or maple syrup.
