These are fantastic! I used all whole wheat flour and applesauce
in place of the oil. Really filling and delicious. Made the
buttermilk syrup recipe from this site - perfect combo. Recipe
only makes six, so may want to dbl. if you want to freeze some.
Thanks so much for submitting this!

Although I've always used a favorite from an old Farm Journal
cookbook, this is the best waffle recipe I've ever tried and is
now my new fave! My husband started making happy sounds after
2 bites and asked me to put another one on--that is a good sign
at my house. My criteria for a good waffle is crispiness and
flavor, and this one has both. The fact that it is healthy is
a bonus. I didn't have wheat germ so I ground some old-fashioned
oats. Great 5-star recipe Mitch103/What A Dish!

I was a little skeptical before making these waffles, but they
turned out surprisingly light, filling, and delicious. They freeze
well for a healthier alternative to Eggo's during the week. I train
for marathons and have found these to be a great pre- or post- run
breakfast. They're a new Saturday morning favorite.
