I am one of those people that could eat breakfast foods for any meal of the day. I am a huge fan of pancakes and waffles, and they are always such a treat when we decide to make them at home. Until recently though, I had always thought of waffles as a unhealthy start to my day. That’s because the recipes that I was using called for all-purpose flour, lots of butter, and sugar. And sometimes when I was really bad, chocolate chips too, yum! Upon reading about the health benefits of whole wheat flour, oat bran and flaxseed meal, I decided to work them into my standard waffle recipe. The result? A hearty and healthy treat. Especially when paired with fresh fruits, such as bananas and blueberries. I made the waffles just this past week, which made for a very exciting and healthy Wednesday morning breakfast to start my workday. Buon Apetite!
