Light and Tender Waffles

Ingredients

• 1 cup of Quick Oats

• 1/4 cup millet

• 2 cups of water

• 1/4 cup of raw cashews

• 1/4 cup Flaxseed

• 2 tbsp Apple Juice Concentrate * or honey

• 2 tbsp cornstarch (opt.)-helps waffle keep its shape when cool

• 1/2 teaspoon of salt

  *Makes waffle brown; 1 date or 1/2 tbsp of raisins may be used instead of the apple juice concentrate.

  **you can sprinkle sesame seeds on waffle iron to help prevent sticking.

Preparation

1. Preheat Waffle Iron-if your iron is old and worn, you probably have to use plenty of non-stick spray. The new waffle irons are not expensive, a new Teflon surface stays nice a long time if you never grease or wash it. The non stick sprays leave a residue that builds up, making the waffles stick so don’t spray, and get a nicer appearing waffle as well!

2. Blend all ingredients for 1 minute

3. Pour mixture into preheated waffle iron and close the lid. Bake until steam stops rising and the waffle is golden brown and crisp. (Usually 8-11 minutes depending on waffle iron.)

4. Remove to a cooling rack and serve. Don’t stack waffles when they’re hot, or they’ll become soggy and compressed. Use a toaster to add crispiness and reheat leftovers.
