Waffle RecipeWaffles, Waffles, Waffles :) Kids will be excited when waffles are served for breakfast. But how to make these waffles exciting as well as healthy? Mixed Millet flour is one healthier option. Millet flour is so versatile that you can make a variety of breakfast recipes. Bake a healthy waffle with the goodness of the secret ingredients (Millets [Proso, Kodo, Finger, Foxtail, Little, Barnyard], Amaranth flour and Whole wheat flour). Enjoy these waffles with fresh fruits, topped with some maple syrup / honey.
3tablespoonmelted butter +1 tablespoon melted butter for greasing
¾ cupmilkwarm
¾teaspoonpure vanilla extract
¼ cupdark chocolate chips
Instructions
Mix 1 tbsp of flax seed powder with 3 tbsp of water in a microwave safe bowl, microwave it for 20 seconds and set it aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine millet flour, corn flour, baking powder, salt and cane sugar. This is the dry mixture.
In another bowl, combine warm milk, melted butter, vanilla extract and the flax seed mixture thoroughly. This is the wet mixture.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and mix until no lumps are seen. If necessary add 1 or 2 tbsps of warm milk. This depends on the flour. Rest the batter for 10 minutes.
The consistency should be a pour-able consistency.
Preheat oven @160c.
Grease the waffle mould with butter and pour a ladle full of the batter into each waffle cavity. The batter will start to spread by itself. Fill all the cavities and tap gently.
Bake for 15 - 20 minutes at 160c or until the top turns slightly brown.
Allow them to cool for few minutes and transfer them to a serving plate.
Enjoy the warm waffles with fresh fruits and maple syrup / honey for breakfast!
Notes
I used a silicone waffle mould for baking. In this case try to place the mould on a baking tray to facilitate even baking.
I used 250 ml measuring cup.
The organic mixed millet flour that I used is a combination of Proso, Kodo, Finger, Foxtail, Little, Barnyard millets, Amaranth flour and organic Whole wheat flour.
