Whole Wheat Waffles

Mix Ingredients for ~ 6 ½ c of mix
3 c Wheat Flour
1 ¼ c Powdered Milk
¾ c Light Brown Sugar
1 c Wheat Germ
½ c Bran Flakes
2T Baking Powder
½ T Salt

Place all ingredients in a tight sealing container and shake well. Store in an airtight container. Use the earliest expiration date from the ingredients used.

To make 2 c of batter, which makes 6 tradition sized waffles (about 4 by 5 inches), whisk together:
¾ c water
2 T melted butter
2 eggs
½ t vanilla

Stir in 1 ½c mix

then stir in any add-ins

Batter will be a little lumpy. Use as instructed by your waffle maker. If you find they are too dry you can switch ¼ c of the water for vegetable oil.

Add ins:
½ c finely chopped fresh, frozen or dried fruit (blueberries can be left whole)
½ c finely chopped or crushed nuts
½ c chocolate or other flavor chips
½ c mixture of any of the above

These waffles are a quick and healthy alternative to the old-fashioned cookbook version. Make up a double batch, that way the left overs can be popped in the toaster for an ultra quick and yummy weekday breakfast!

Banana Bread or Muffins

Mix Ingredients makes ~ 9 c of mix
3 c wheat flour
1 c white flour
1 c wheat germ
¼ c corn starch
1 ½ c light brown sugar
1 ½ c sugar
½ c milk powder
1 T cream of tarter
2 T baking powder
1 t salt
1 t ground nutmeg
1 t ground coriander

To make mix, just put all ingredients in a large container, put on lid and shake well! Store in an airtight container. Use the closest expiration date from the individual ingredients.

To make bread or muffins
Stir into 3 c mix:
¼ c coconut oil (or shortening)
1 egg
1 t vanilla
1 ½ c mashed ripe bananas
other add-ins of your choice

Pour into a prepared bread pan, or 12 muffin tins. Bake at 375 until done (toothpick test). About 35 minutes for muffins, 70 for bread.

Try adding in ½ c of other yummy treats that might be good. I love adding ½ c of walnuts and ½ c of chocolate chips. You could also try adding in ½ c of dried cranberries. Use what makes you happy!
