A restaurant waffle with syrup and whipped cream (yes!) can have 530 calories and 11 grams saturated fat (no way!). We serve up the goodies but hold the extra calories. Ingredients:
1/2 cup rolled oats |
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour |
1 tablespoon ground flaxseed |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 egg, separated |
3/4 cup skim milk |
1/4 cup mashed banana |
1 tablespoon canola oil |
vegetable oil cooking spray |
3/4 cup nonfat plain greek yogurt, divided |
1 1/2 cups sliced strawberries, divided |
3 tablespoons sliced almonds, divided |
6 teaspoons maple syrup, divided |
Directions:
1. Heat waffle iron. In a blender, process oats until flourlike in texture. In a bowl, combine oats with flour, flaxseed, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice and salt. In a second bowl, beat egg white until stiff peaks form. In a third bowl, mix milk, banana, oil and egg yolk. Gently stir milk-banana mixture into dry ingredients; gently fold in egg white until just combined. Coat waffle iron with cooking spray; pour 1/3 cup batter onto iron, and cook until waffle is crispy and pale gold, about 4 minutes. Repeat twice. Top each waffle with 1/4 cup yogurt, 1/2 cup strawberries, 1 tablespoon almonds and 2 teaspoon syrup.
