Yield Makes about 10 waffles

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup whole-wheat flour
1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon plus 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon plus pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 cup plus 1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons honey
5 large eggs
2 cups milk, plus more as needed
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon molasses
Nonstick cooking spray, for waffle iron
Pure maple syrup, for serving (optional)
Blueberries, for serving (optional)

Steps:

Preheat waffle iron. Sift together both flours, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg three times; set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together oil and honey. Add eggs, milk, vanilla, and molasses; whisk well to combine. Add flour mixture and stir to combine; mixture should be easily pourable, but not too thick. If mixture seems too thick, add a little more milk.
Spray waffle iron with cooking spray. Pour 1/2 cup batter into waffle iron. Cook until golden brown, about 1 1/2 minutes. Carefully remove waffle from iron and repeat process with remaining batter. Serve immediately.
