The key to these waffles are the chocolate chips. And I didn’t use just any ole brand. I used Pacari Premium Organic Chocolate. You guys, this chocolate is the bomb. So good! You can taste the quality in this chocolate. I also used Stonyfield Organic fat free plain yogurt, Dixie Crystals sugar, pure almond extract from Nielsen-Massey and walnuts from California Walnuts! Thank you, sponsors!!!

You guys need to try these waffles . .  either for Mother’s Day or your next brunch at home. The texture on these waffles is perfection and I love the balance of whole wheat, regular flour and the flaxseed meal. I also love the hint of almond from the almond milk and almond extract. Amazing!! I hope you try these waffles!

Chocolate Chip Flaxseed Waffles

Recipe yields about 5 -6 waffles.
Prep Time15 minutes mins
Cook Time10 minutes mins
Total Time25 minutes mins
Course: Breakfast or Brunch
Author: Hip Foodie Mom

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup organic golden flaxseed meal
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs beaten
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 3/4 cup plain fat-free yogurt
  • 1/3 cup almond milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure almond extract
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate chips
  • maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup walnuts
  • non-stick spray for your waffle baker

Instructions

  • Preheat your waffle baker according to manufacturer's instructions. Using a medium sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flours, flaxseed meal, baking soda, baking powder, salt and sugar. Using a smaller separate mixing bowl, beat together the eggs and melted butter, then add the yogurt, almond milk and pure almond extract. Mix together until well blended. Add the chocolate chips and mix again one more time. Do not over mix.
  • Add the wet ingredients into the dry flour mixture and stir until combined. Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes.
  • When your waffle baker is ready, spray with non-stick spray and, using a ladle, or something with a spout, pour in your waffle batter, start with just a 1/3 cup (depending on what size your waffle baker is). Close the waffle baker and flip (if you have a waffle baker that has two sides) and repeat. Press the timer and cook for about 2 to 2.5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden on both sides and cooked through.
  • Serve warm with maple syrup and top with the walnuts! Enjoy!
