Very berry waffles

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup Unbleached flour
½ cup Whole wheat flour
3 tablespoons Sugar
1½ teaspoon Baking powder
½ teaspoon Baking soda
¼ teaspoon Salt
2 Egg whites
1¼ cup Buttermilk, lowfat
1 tablespoon Margarine, melted
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
¾ cup Rasperries
¾ cup Blackberries
¾ cup Blueberries
4 Strawberries

Directions

Prep time: 15 minutes Cook time: 20 minutes Coat a waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray and preheat. Combine flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in large bowl.

Make a well in the center of the flour mix. Whisk the egg whites, buttermilk, margarine and vanilla in another bowl. Pour egg white mixture into flour's well, stirring until just blended. Fold in half each of the raspberries, blackberries and blueberries. Spoon about 1 cup of the batter onto the hot waffle iron. Close and cook until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Repeat, coating iron with nonstick spray between each batch. Keep waffles warm in a 250 F (120 C) oven until all are cooked. Divide waffles onto 4 plates. Top each with equal amounts of remaining berries and a strawberry.

Variation: You can use the batter to make pancakes, and instead of mixing the fruit in the batter use it as a topping only.
