Morning waffles

Slow mornings are my favorite. We seem to come back to bed a few times before we both actually get up. We open our kitchen door so the breeze from the deck blows through our place. The kitties play like wild, I think they can feel the slowness and know that they have us for at least a few hours. We already talked about waffles last night, which ones we would be making for breakfast this morning. The gluten free mix from the box, or Steves homemade waffles.

Steve was up for mixing his own batch while wandered about tidying up and watching the kitties play. A waffle maker is the best breakfast appliance ever! They are lighter than pancakes and have grooves to hold yogurt, fruit and syrup.

This morning I chopped up some frozen peaches, strawberries and pineapple. Steve fried up some eggs in ghee, over easy for me please!

Steve says he prefers brown sugar in this recipe.

Waffles
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup almond milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
1 tbsp arrowroot starch
1 tsp apple pie spice ( cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice)

- in a medium sized bowl mix all the dry ingredients together. Then add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture. Then mix it up. Steve says you can add more almond milk at this point if u want it more runny. He says it pours into the waffle maker better this way.
