Spelt Waffles with Blueberry Compote + A Giveaway! Spelt Waffles with Blueberry Compote and Lemon Ricotta Cream from Bobby Flay’s new cookbook, Bobby Flay Fit! 200 recipes for a healthy lifestyle!

In February 2016, I had the great pleasure of attending Spelt Waffles with Blueberry Compote + A Giveaway! Spelt Waffles with Blueberry Compote and Lemon Ricotta Cream from Bobby Flay's new cookbook, Fit! 200 recipes for a healthy lifestyle!

“Cook, eat, and be fit with 200 recipes from Bobby Flay, whose approach to healthy eating is all about flavor—not eliminating anything from your diet!

With a profession that has him constantly developing and tasting new recipes, chef Bobby Flay does not eschew any foods: bread, bacon, and butter are still all on the table. His secret to staying healthy is to have on hand an arsenal of low-calorie flavor bombs—like rubs, relishes, and marinades—to transform lean proteins, whole grains, and fresh produce into craveworthy meals at home. In Bobby Flay Fit, Bobby shares smoothies and juices, breakfast bowls, snacks to fuel workouts, hearty salads, nourishing soups, satisfying dinners, and lightened-up desserts. With fitness tips and a look into the chef’s daily healthy routines, this cookbook is for those who want to eat right without overhauling their pantries or sacrificing taste.”

Spelt Waffles with Blueberry Compote

Course: Brunch or breakfast
Servings: 6
Author: Bobby Flay

Ingredients

For the lemon ricotta cream:

  • 1 cup part-skim ricotta
  • 1 tablespoon confectioners sugar
  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest plus more for garnish
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

For the blueberry compote:

  • 1 pint fresh blueberries or 1 pound frozen blueberries, thawed
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

For the waffles:

  • 1 cup spelt flour
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 2 cups low fat buttermilk
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
  • nonstick baking spray

Instructions

For the lemon ricotta cream:

  • In a small bowl, combine the ricotta, confectioners' sugar, lemon zest and lemon juice and whisk until light and fluffy. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.

For the blueberry compote:

  • In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, 1/4 cup water and the maple syrup and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 7 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, add the lemon juice and let cool at least slightly.

For the waffles:

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees. Set a rack on a baking sheet and put into the oven.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, butter, eggs and lemon zest. Add the flour mixture and mix until the batter is combined. Let sit for 15 minutes.
  • Heat a waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions, spray with nonstick spray. Pour batter onto the iron, leaving a 1/2 inch border on all sides. Close the iron and cook until the waffle is golden brown and crisp, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Transfer to the rack in the oven to keep warm; repeat with remaining batter.
  • To serve: top the waffles with the blueberry compote and the ricotta cream. Garnish with lemon zest.
