Super easy to make and better for you than store-bought mixes. This recipe is adapted from the Whole Foods for the Whole Family cookbook.
Gather up your ingredients:
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cup oil
2 Tbs. brown sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 cups whole wheat flour
In a mixer bowl, put the eggs, milk, and oil. Mix until well blended. Stir the dry ingredients together and add to the mixer bowl, mixing until blended. Cook on a hot waffle iron.
While the waffles cook, gather up your Honey Cinnamon Butter ingredients:
The amounts for this are only determined by how much you want to make. I used a bit more than a half stick of butter, a big glob of honey and several shakes of cinnamon. Melt them all together over low heat and drizzle over hot waffles. Yum! You’ll be the most popular person in your house on Saturday morning.

Gotta try this one too! 🙂 I made no bakes and they didn’t turn out very good. Any suggestions? It took FOREVER for them to set up! But the Oatmeal cookies were a HIT at family game night! Thanks!

I’m trying this one for sure. Question – have you tried substituting apple sauce for the oil? Just wondering if it would be okay.
Brandy says
I wanted to let you know I made these over the weekend and used applesauce instead of oil,used 1/2 water 1/2 milk and added a teaspoon of cinnamon.
They turned out pretty good, but took a little longer to get “brown” than normal waffles. I’m sure it was because there wasn’t any oil in them…but it also decreased the fat enough that the extra few minutes of cook time did not bother me.
Thanks again!
