Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 1/4 cups whole-wheat flour
  • 1/4 cup toasted wheat germ
  • 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons  baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon  salt
  • 1 teaspoon  ground cinnamon
  • 2 large eggs, (lightly beaten)
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instruction

  • Mix buttermilk and oats in a medium bowl; let stand for 15 minutes.
  • Whisk whole-wheat flour, flaxseed, wheat germ, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl.
  • Stir eggs, sugar, oil and vanilla into the oat mixture. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients; mix with a rubber spatula just until moistened.
  • Coat a waffle iron with cooking spray and preheat. Spoon in enough batter to cover three-fourths of the surface (about 2/3 cup for an 8-by-8-inch waffle iron). Cook until waffles are crisp and golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
