Buttermilk Kamut Waffles image

This is a slight modification on my kamut pancakes (#75548) that I decided to try on a whim. The kids loved them and were asking for them to be toasted the next day. Anytime I can get anything healthy like that into my kids willingly (especially the picky older one!) I love it! This uses the actual kamut grain, not kamut flour. You use the blender to cut up the kamut (an ancient type of wheat with a lovely nutty flavor). Kamut can be found at your health food store. It looks like plump brown rice. These waffles are a bit dense and if you don't get the grains cut up very well, have the occasional crunchy piece. But they have a lovely flavor, are good for you, and my kids devour them! While sour milk could certainly be used here, buttermilk will give it a depth that you can't get from sour milk.

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 3/4 cups low-fat buttermilk
