Pecan Whole-Wheat Waffles With Cherry Sauce
- 1 12 cups all-purpose flour
- 12 cup whole wheat flour
- 12 cup finely chopped toasted pecans
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 14 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 14 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 13 cup light-brown sugar, packed
- 2 eggs
- 1 14 cups milk
- 2 cups pitted dark sweet cherries or 12 ounces frozen dark sweet cherries
- 12 cup maple syrup
- 14 cup honey or 14 cup cherry jam
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
- Cherry Sauce: Combine cherries with maple syrup and honey in a small saucepan.
- Bring to simmering (meanwhile, start toasting your pecans for the waffles and make the waffle batter).
- Dissolve cornstarch in water and stir into cherry mixture.
- Cook, stirring, 1 minute or until thickened.
- Remove from heat.
- Makes 2 1/2 cups.
- Waffles: Heat waffle iron.
- Heat oven to 225.
- (I heated my oven at 350 to toast the pecans and didn't bother heating at 225 because there weren't any leftovers to keep warm).
- Combine flours, toasted pecans, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt in a large bowl.
- Make a well in the center.
- Whisk butter and brown sugar in a medium-size bowl until blended.
- Whisk in eggs and milk.
- Add to well and stir to blend.
- Let stand 5 minutes.
- Coat waffle iron lightly with nonstick cooking spray (if my iron needs coating, I use my butter wrappers to coat instead because I prefer the butter flavor and it makes good use of all the butter).
- Spoon batter onto iron.
- Cover and cook 4 minutes or until browned.
- Remove waffles.
- Stack between sheets of waxed paper on a baking sheet and keep warm in heated 225 oven (I skipped this step).
- Repeat with remaining batter and serve with sauce.
- Combine flo.
