tasty snack

Update: I doctored this recipe, yet again, this morning. I stuck with pancakes, but didn't have enough whole wheat flour and was anti-white flour. Who knows why. I eyeballed my rolled oats and decided to grind those babies in the food processor and use that as flour. What a rebel. They turned out great! Not as much rise as normal, I'm assuming it's from the lack of gluten in the oats, but they had such an awesome texture. I fell in love. As far as how much cinnamon and vanilla I use....well, I don't really measure cinnamon. I love it and add however much I want. Vigorous shakes. I add about a tsp of vanilla.

i've mentioned these super easy and delicious pancakes before.

a friend clued me in to making them with whole wheat flour and using the batter for waffles.

the transition is a good one.

i also add a bit of vanilla and some cinnamon.

as i was packing my lunch this morning, i wanted a different mid-morning snack. i saw these babies in the freezer and had an idea.

toasted whole wheat waffles + warmed mixed berries

turned out great and both are always in my freezer. zapping the frozen berries in the microwave makes a nice simple syrup.

a new favorite for work! high in fiber, too!
