Ingredients

WHOLE-GRAIN STRAWBERRY WAFFLES

  • 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 Tbsp cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup ground flaxseed
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ cup + 2 Tbsp vegetable oil or oil of choice
  • cups skim milk
  • ½ cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 Tbsp vanilla

STRAWBERRY COMPOTE

  • 1 cup frozen strawberries chopped
  • 1 ½ lb strawberries stems removed and diced about 4 cups diced
  • ¼ cup cane sugar
  • 2 Tbsp lemon or lime juice
  • 2 Tbsp water

Instructions

TO MAKE WHOLE-GRAIN STRAWBERRY WAFFLES:

  • Preheat waffle iron. Preheat oven to 200°F.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together flours, cocoa, flaxseed, cornstarch, and baking powder to combine.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together oil, milk, yogurt, eggs, sugar, and vanilla.
  • Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients, and whisk together until smooth and no lumps are present. Fold in chopped strawberries.
  • Spray inside of waffle iron with cooking spray. Ladle batter on waffle iron, being careful not to pour too much. About ½ cup of batter per waffle square is a good starting place.
  • Once waffle is done cooking, remove with tongs and put straight onto bare, preheated oven racks to keep warm until serving.

TO MAKE STRAWBERRY COMPOTE

  • To make the compote, combine the strawberries, cane sugar, lemon or lime juice, and water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low.
  • Stirring frequently, continue cooking until the mixture has thickened and formed a syrup consistency, about 7-10 minutes. If desired, use a fork or a potato masher to break the strawberries into smaller pieces
