IMPERIAL

  • 375 ml all-purpose flour
  • 125 ml barley flour
  • 50 ml wheat germ
  • 25 ml granulated sugar
  • 15 ml baking powder
  • 2 ml baking soda
  • 2 ml salt

  • 250 ml blueberries (if using frozen, blueberries should be thawed and drained)
The best way to start the day is with a good nutritious breakfast and you can’t get much more fun in the morning than with waffles. This recipe can easily be made in a big batch, days ahead and frozen. During busy Monday to Friday mornings, just pop frozen homemade waffles in the toaster for a grab and go breakfast for the kids.

Instructions

In a bowl, whisk all-purpose flour, barley flour, wheat germ, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, whisk together buttermilk and eggs. Combine wet and dry mixtures; stirring to combine. Fold in butter.

Fold in bananas and blueberries until blended.

Fill our waffle iron with (approx.) 1 cup (250 mL) of batter per waffle. Cook until golden and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer waffles to baking sheet and keep warm in 200°F (100°C) oven until ready to serve.

Keep waffles in one layer to keep crisp. Continue with step 3 until remaining batter is finished. If freezing, let waffles cool completely, double wrap in plastic wrap, label and freeze for up to 3 weeks.

Children will probably only eat half a waffle. Serve with pure Canadian maple syrup, honey, jam or even yogurt. If you don’t have barley flour, you can substitute with the same amount of all-purpose or whole wheat flour.
