Breakfast Indulgence


Oakley wanted chocolate chip waffles for breakfast, so I made these and put TJs Raspberry jam on them (for me, of course, not the kids). These tasted like a decadent dessert (and I am not a huge fan of fruit and chocolate but this is a great combination)...YUM. You don't have to feel bad because they are even made with half whole wheat. Oakley even gobbled up 1 1/2 waffles--amazing for him.

Chocolate Chip Waffles
1 cup whole wheat flour

1 cup white flour

1 TSB baking powder

dash of salt

a few dashes cinnamon

1 3/4 or 2 cups milk (depending on how thin you like your batter)

1/4 cup canola oil

2 egg whites, whipped until stiff

1/2 - 1 cup chocolate chips (depending on how chocolatey you want it)

Mix all dry ingredients. Stir in milk and oil. Fold in egg whites and chocolate chips. Cook according to waffle maker instructions. For best results top with good quality raspberry jam (like TJs).
