Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/4 cup white grape juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/4 cup coarsely ground toasted walnuts
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 4 egg whites
- 2 1/4 cups buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons oil
- Blueberry Sauce (recipe below)
- 1 cup organic frozen blueberries
Directions
- In a medium bowl, stir together all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, walnuts, baking powder, and baking soda. In a large bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on medium speed until very foamy. Stir in buttermilk and oil. Gradually add flour mixture, beating by hand until smooth.
- Pour 1 cup of the batter onto grids of a preheated, lightly greased square waffle baker (or 2/3 cup batter for a round waffle baker). Close lid quickly; do not open lid until waffle is done. Bake according to manufacturer directions. When waffle is done, use a fork to lift waffle off grids. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve waffles warm with Blueberry Sauce.
- Blueberry Sauce: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup frozen blueberries, 1/4 cup white grape juice, and 1 tablespoon honey. Heat just until bubbles form around edges. Cool slightly. Transfer mixture to a blender. Cover and blend until smooth. Transfer sauce to a serving bowl. Stir in 1 cup frozen blueberries. Makes about 1 2/3 cups sauce.
