Ingredients

• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1.75 cups milk (or non-dairy milk)
• 0.5 cups plain Greek yogurt
• 2 eggs
• 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
• 1 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
• 0 non-stick cooking spray or melted butter (for greasing)

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, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.

Step 3

In another medium mixing bowl, combine the milk, Greek yogurt, eggs, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Whisk until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir just until combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter may be a little lumpy, which is fine.

Step 5

Lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray or melted butter.

Step 6

Scoop an appropriate amount of the batter onto the preheated waffle iron (refer to your waffle iron's instructions for quantity). Close the lid and cook the waffles until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes depending on your waffle iron.

Step 7

Carefully remove the waffle from the iron and repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the iron as needed between batches.

Step 8

Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, yogurt, syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
