Vanessa's Notes:

I used Leah Stacey's recipe for Light N Krispy Belgian Waffles as my inspiration. Just added a few ingredients to contribute to the "healthy" factor. My 9-year old is a HORRIBLE eater, but he loves eating these waffles and doesn't even know how many healthy ingredients I have managed to sneak in there!

Directions

Preheat waffle maker.

Put all ingredients except egg whites in large mixer bowl. Beat on low until moistened. Increase to medium, mix until smooth.

By hand, gently fold in beaten egg whites.

Spray the waffle maker with cooking spray. Pour 3/4 cup batter over grids. Close waffle maker, bake until steam no longer escapes, about 3-5 minutes or until your light goes off on your iron. Repeat. Serve hot with your favorite topping.
