Cook's notes

I usually don't add salt to any of my recipes. However, this one needs it.

Ingredients

3/4 c whole wheat pastry flour
3/4 c whole wheat flour
1/2 c wheat germ
2 t baking powder
1/4 t salt
1/4 t baking soda
1 t cinnamon

1 1/2 c milk
1/3 c applesauce
1/4 c canola or safflower oil
2 large eggs
1/2 t vanilla

1 c raisins

Steps

• Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl. Combine wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Pour wet ingredients over dry ingredients and gently combine. Gently fold in the raisins. (If you are too energetic or rough with the batter, the waffles will be tough.)
• Spoon batter into waffle maker and cook as per manufacturer's instructions. Cook a little longer for crisper waffles.
• Serve immediately or keep warm on the rack of a 200° F oven.
