Rhubarb Waffles With Rhubarb Sauce (low Fat) image

These tender waffles need time to set in the waffle iron before you lift the lid to check on them. Let patience rule, because peeking too soon will tear the waffle and make it difficult to remove.

1 1/4 lbs rhubarb, trimmed and cut into ΒΌ inch pieces (5 cups)
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 large egg whites
1 1/4 cups skim milk
1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil, preferably canola oil
1 1/2 cups all purpose white flour

Steps:

  • TO MAKE SAUCE: Ina medium sized saucepan, combine rhubarb and sugar.

  • Cook until the rhubarb is tender and translucent.
  • With a slotted spoon, transfer about 1 cup of the rhubarb to a small bowl and reserve for the waffle batter.

  • Serve hot, topped with the rhubarb sauce.
