    List of Ingredients




    Whole-Grain Waffles With Cherry Sauce


    2 cups fresh or frozen (not thawed) pitted cherries, (10-ounce package)
    1/4 cup water
    1/4 cup honey
    2 teaspoons cornstarch
    1 teaspoon lemon juice
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2 cups white whole-wheat flour, (see Note)
    1/2 cup fine cornmeal
    1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    2 large eggs
    1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
    2 cups low-fat or nonfat buttermilk
    1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, or canola oil
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract

    Recipe




    To prepare cherry sauce:

    Combine cherries, water, honey, cornstarch, lemon juice and vanilla extract in a small saucepan.

    Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens, about 1 minute.

    Set aside.

    To prepare waffles:

    Preheat oven to 200°F; place a large baking sheet on the center rack.

    Whisk whole-wheat flour (see Measuring Tip), cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.

    Lightly beat eggs and brown sugar in a medium bowl.

    Add buttermilk, oil and vanilla; whisk until well blended.

    Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.

    Preheat a Belgian-style waffle iron.

    Lightly coat it with cooking spray.

    Add enough batter to cover about two-thirds of the surface (about 2/3 cup); distribute evenly with a spatula.

    Close and cook until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes.

    Transfer the waffles to the baking sheet to keep warm until ready to serve; do not stack.

    Repeat with the remaining batter, using more cooking spray as needed.

    Warm the cherry sauce over medium heat until hot and bubbling; serve with the waffles.
