    This healthy waffle recipe is perfectly fluffy and thick, and gains so much flavor from the cinnamon. The raisins give it a natural sweetness, which means you don't have to add extra sugar to the batter.

    🥘 Ingredients

    To make these waffles with raisins and cinnamon, you will need whole wheat flour, raisins, eggs, milk (use cow's milk, almond milk, oat milk or soy milk), vegetable oil, maple syrup, cinnamon and baking powder.

    The maple syrup and cinnamon are added for flavor, and can be omitted or replaced with other seasonings.

    You will also need a waffle maker.

    🔪 Instructions

    Preheat your waffle maker while you prepare the waffle batter.

    Combine the baking powder, cinnamon and flour in a bowl.

    Add the eggs, milk, maple syrup and vegetable oil, and stir to combine into a smooth waffle batter.

    It's fine if there are some small lumps throughout. Finally, add the raisins and get ready to cook the waffles.

    You might want to brush some oil or butter onto the waffle maker to keep the waffles from sticking. If you use a non stick waffle maker, this should not be necessary.

    Ladle the batter into the waffle moulds. The raisins will fall to the bottom of the batter, so make sure to scoop some up in every ladle.

    💭 Top tips

    These waffles are so easy to make, there's no way you can get it wrong. But regardless, here's my best advice to cook perfect, fluffy, delicious cinnamon raisin waffles:

    • I know 4 teaspoon baking powder sounds like a lot, but trust me, it's the correct amount and it makes the best fluffy, thick waffles.
    • If you're a big fan of lots of raisins, you can double the amount.
    • If you're struggling to get the raisins evenly distributed through the waffles, you can sprinkle them over the waffles in the waffle maker as you cook them instead of adding them to the batter.
    • The whole wheat flour makes the waffles healthy, filling and delicous. If you don't have it available, you can use plain white flour or oat flour instead.

    🥗 Serving suggestions

    Waffles can be served as is, or enjoyed with a range of toppings. Serve them with raisins, fresh berries, sliced bananas, rhubarb jam, whipped feta or other spreads.

    🍲 Leftovers

    Leftover cinnamon raisin waffles can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can also safely store the waffle batter in an airtight container for up to 3 days for quick and easy freshly made breakfast waffles through the week.

    Lastly, whole wheat waffles can also be frozen! Reheat frozen waffles in a toaster oven, or thaw them in the fridge overnight before serving them.
