100% Whole Wheat Waffles // Looking for a nutritious way to start your day? These 100% Whole Wheat Waffles are heart healthy and perfect for the entire family! | Tried and TastyIt’s no secret that breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day. I’ve struggled on and off trying to make sure I start my morning on the right foot with a good filling and nutritious breakfast. The problem is I’m not a morning person. Stay up in to the wee hours of the night? No problem! Get up early enough to have a great breakfast? Problem. What I look for in a great breakfast is something that is quick, easy, and healthy. All too often it’s easy to either skip the meal entirely or grab something that really isn’t doing my body any good.

I got together with some girlfriends for brunch this past weekend and as we were deciding on our menu, I was asked if I had a good waffle recipe. It was then that I realized.. I don’t have ANY waffle recipes! Typically, when I make waffles I usually grab my go-to Kodiak Cakes. As awesome as my 100% Whole Wheat Pancakes are, I knew I needed to also add a good whole wheat waffle recipe to my arsenal as well. These waffles are fantastic! They are super simple to throw together, made without any refined flours or sugars, light, fluffy, and delicious! Could you ask for anything more?

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 c. whole wheat flour
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 tbsp. honey
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1/2 c. lukewarm milk
  • 1/3 c. melted coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle maker. 

  2. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, honey, and coconut oil. Mix together the wet and dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. The batter will be a bit lumpy; that's OK.

  3.  Ladle batter in to waffle maker and cook the waffles until lightly golden brown.

Recipe Notes

I used whole wheat pastry four for an even lighter waffle that was absolutely perfect!

      Let me know if you try them, these came out absolutely perfect (as you can see) for me – they are so easy!

      It’s pretty rare to find full 100% whole wheat recipes, they almost always have white flour in them – I like to prove they can be tasty with wheat flour only!

      It’s so hard sometimes isn’t it?!? I always make other things a priority.. when in reality I need to make eating breakfast a priority!

    Another great video Yvonne! These waffles looks wonderful…I have not had waffles in ages. It’s been on my list for a while now to get a waffle maker. I can’t wait to give these a try when I do get one. Love a healthier breakfast. xo, Catherine

    I keep seeing all of these waffle recipes around the web today and I’m like I NEED A WAFFLE MAKER! I LOVE your healthier waffle recipe, Yvonne! I need to get my hands on a waffle maker stat so I can make them!

    1. Yvonne

      Certainly. You are welcome to use vegetable or canola of course! My preference is coconut – but I know that not everyone loves it as much as I do ;)
