Whole Wheat Waffles {Recipe}

We stayed at my Mom and Dad's house a few summers ago and my Mom made these delicious whole wheat waffles. She printed the recipe for me from Cooks.com and I left it there. Ooops! My wonderful Dad emailed it to me and that is how it is printed in my cookbook!

I doubled the batch, so it made A LOT! We put them in the freezer...

Whole Wheat Waffles (from Cooks.com)
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour (I used regular whole wheat)
1 cup white flour
3 Tbsp sugar


1/2 tsp salt
3 tsp baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
3 eggs
2 cups skim milk (I used vanilla soy milk)
3-4 Tbsp vegetable oil (I used canola)

Sift dry ingredients in bowl. Mix remaining ingredients in a separate bowl. Combine the mixtures, and bake in a waffle iron. Makes 8-10 waffles. Top with butter, syrup, jam, jelly, fruit, powdered sugar, agave nectar, peanut butter or molasses... just not all at the same time! :-D

Making this recipe had me thinking about some of these Bible verses about wheat:

Psalm 81:16
But you would be fed with the finest of wheat; with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”


Matthew 13:24-26 
²⁴ Jesus told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. ²⁵ But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. ²⁶ When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared.

Read this parable explained here.

Let me know if you try this recipe, I'd love to hear your review!
