Oh Boy Waffles

My Dad had a recipe for waffles that was the best you can possibly imagine. They are 100% whole wheat and very good for you. I like to make them and pour blended fruit over them and then top it all with whip cream. It has less calories then syrup so my health agrees. If you would like to have some of these you can. Here is the recipe:

3 cups of Wheat Flour. (You can use white but that will just make you fat and it doesn't taste as good.)
3 eggs beaten
1/4 cups oil
1 tsp Salt
1 1/2 Tbs Sugar
4 tsp Baking Powder
2 3/4 cups Milk

I first beat my eggs till they are foamy then add milk and oil. Mix these together and then add the dry ingredients. Poor into a waffle iron or onto a hot griddle and enjoy. (If you want them fluffier just add a little watter to make it more runny.)
A few days ago I got out the powdered egg and powdered milk and made up a mix that makes 10 times this much. It was a lot of fun. Now I can just scoop out some mix, add the water and oil and I am eating in no time. Maybe on my free time this week I will work up a brownie mix!

1) the waffles look yummy, we'll have to try them. 2) I had no idea you were such a chef and 3) I love that the white flour will make you fat, but the whipped cream on top won't :o)

yumm-O! I was looking for a non-meaty pre-Turkey meal that was easy and would use some of the deal of a bag 'o whole wheat flour I picked up this weekend. (I know, you probably ground your own, I'm home-ecky but not crazy:)THank, THANK you for the post!

If you use light whipcream and fruit it is like 5 times less calories. The white flour has no nutrition in it so it just puts on empty calories. Maple Syrup is the best but I am trying to get thin enough to wear the same pants as kenneth.
