Multigrain Waffles
- 1 1/2 cups whole-wheat pastry flour
- 1/4 cup cornmeal
- 1/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 tablespoon wheat germ, optional
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 3 tablespoons grapeseed or vegetable oil, plus more for brushing waffle iron
- 3 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- Plain low-fat yogurt and your favorite fruit preserves, for topping, optional
- Special equipment: a waffle iron
- Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high.
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (to keep cooked waffles warm).
- Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, oats, wheat germ, if using, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a large bowl.
- Whisk together the buttermilk, oil, sugar and eggs in another bowl.
- Pour the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture and gently stir until just incorporated (it's okay if there are some lumps).
- Lightly brush the top and bottom of the waffle iron with oil.
- Fill the waffle iron about three-quarters of the way full (some waffle iron should still be showing).
- Close the lid gently and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, 6 to 7 minutes.
- Keep the cooked waffles warm in the oven or covered with foil on a plate while you make the remaining waffles.
- Top each waffle with yogurt and fruit preserves, if desired.
