  • 1 T baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar or honey for refined sugar-free option. If using a sugar alternative be sure to add it with the wet ingredients.

  • 1 3/4 cups milk dairy or non-dairy
  • 1 T Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 6 Tb butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Weigh your wheat berries and then grind them with your mill. Remember that wheat berries have the same weight as wheat flour.
  • Heat your waffle iron to medium-high heat.
  • Mix milk and ACV for at least 5 minutes to properly start to curdle. If you are using buttermilk their is no need to do this step.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, brown sugar and salt.
  • In another bowl, whisk together eggs, milk mixture, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring with a dutch whisk just until combined.
  • Let the batter rest for 10 minutes or up to 48 hr (refridgerated). This allows the flour to hydrate properly and results in a better texture.
  • Cook waffles per instructions of your waffle iron. Enjoy!
