Hints from Heloise
Dear Heloise: My family loves your waffle recipe (the one with club soda). To make it a little more healthful, I also add 1/4 cup each of wheat germ and flaxseed. – Kelly A. McConnell, via e-mail
We retested this in Heloise Central, and yum! I made several batches – one each using ginger ale, orange soda and plain club soda. Adding the flaxseed and/or wheat germ does make them a little crunchy. Remember, cook them ASAP so they will be fluffy! Don’t let the batter set and go flat. To make, you will need:
Waffle Mix
2 cups good biscuit mix
1 egg
1/2 cup oil
1 1/3 cups club soda
Combine the above ingredients and use a large spoon to blend – don’t overmix. Then simply add to a hot waffle iron or make as pancakes.
