Whole Wheat Waffles

My husband basically made this recipe up.  He took the recipe that came with our waffle iron and tinkered with it for almost a year so it would be more moist, more fluffy, and healthier.  The result?  Yummy!

You have to start these the night before, because soaking the flour overnight makes them moist instead of dry and grainy, which is what most whole wheat recipes struggle with.

Whole Wheat Waffles 

2 cups Whole wheat flour
1/4 cup Sugar
4 tsp. Baking powder
1/2 tsp. Salt
6 Eggs
2 cups Milk
2 tbsp. Oil
1 tsp. Vanilla

Mix flour and milk in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with the oil and vanilla. Pour into flour mixture and stir to combine. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine sugar, baking soda, and salt. Pour into flour mixture and stir to combine. Bake in a waffle iron at medium high for four minutes.

Makes approximately twelve waffles (can also be frozen and reheated in a toaster on medium high).
