  • Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Fiber One™ original bran cereal
  • 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
  • 1 egg, slightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3/4 cup Gold Medal™ whole wheat or all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Maple syrup, if desired
  • Fresh raspberries, if desired

Steps

  • 1
    Heat waffle maker. Place cereal in resealable food-storage plastic bag; seal bag and crush with rolling pin or meat mallet (or crush in food processor).
  • 2
    In large bowl, mix crushed cereal and buttermilk; let stand 5 minutes. Stir in egg, oil and vanilla. Stir in remaining ingredients except syrup and raspberries just until smooth. (Batter will be thick.)
  • 3
    For each waffle, brush hot waffle maker with vegetable oil. Spread batter onto center of hot waffle maker. (Waffle makers vary in size; check manufacturer's directions for recommended amount of batter.) Close lid of waffle maker.
  • 4
    Bake about 5 minutes or until steaming stops and waffle is golden brown. Carefully remove waffle. Serve immediately. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve with maple syrup and raspberries.

  • Serve waffles immediately, or keep warm in a single layer on a cooling rack or paper towel-lined cookie sheet in a 200°F oven. If you stack them, they'll become soggy.
  • Eating at least 3 servings of whole grain daily may help reduce blood cholesterol. Look for the word "whole" to be sure you get the whole grain.
