2 eggs, beaten
1 3/4 C skim milk
1/4 C applesauce
1/4 C pumpkin (canned)
1 t vanilla
1 C whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 C flax seed meal
1/4 C wheat germ
1/4 C flour
4 t baking powder
1 T sugar
1/4 t salt
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, oil, applesauce, and vanilla. Beat in the flours, flax seed, wheat germ, baking powder, sugar and salt until batter is smooth. Preheat a belgian waffle iron (probably would work in a normal waffle iron, I just don't have one), and coat with cooking spray. Pour batter into waffle iron and cook until crisp and golden.
**I made these right along side THESE, and both Hans and I liked these better! So healthy, yet so light and crispy. I also made a simple fruit syrup with some blueberries, raspberries, water and a couple teaspoons of sugar, boiling until thick. Oh and I added a little lemon curd...mmmm. Delightful!
**Original recipe was from allrecipes.com, but I changed it.
**Estimated 250 calories, 6 g fat, 8g fiber and 12 g protein per waffle! Fat content is high, but that's from the awesome flax seed, wheat germ and eggs! NO added oil, that's why you can add the whipped cream!
