WaffleParty.com: Delicious Vegan Waffles!

It is now relatively common knowledge that whole grain flour is much healthier than white flour. However, whole wheat flour produces a somewhat denser and less “fluffy” waffle. You can achieve a “compromise” by using half whole grain buckwheat (not a type of wheat!) or wheat flour and half unbleached white flour–or you may prefer the taste of whole wheat white flour, available at some stores. There are also flours made from other grains, including spelt, rye, amaranth, and oats, that make great waffles. These have different nutritional profiles than wheat, and for some individuals, are easier to digest. In the Pittsburgh area, for example, you can buy pre-made waffle mix with spelt at locations including the East End Food Co-op.
