Pecan Wheat Waffles Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the pecans on a baking sheet; bake until toasted, 5 to 7 minutes. Let cool, then chop. Reduce the oven temperature to 200 degrees F.
• Whisk the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a large bowl. Whisk the egg, milk, buttermilk and vanilla in a separate bowl until combined. Stir the egg mixture, melted butter and shortening into the dry ingredients until just combined. (The batter will be lumpy.)
• Preheat a waffle iron and brush with melted butter. Ladle some batter into the iron (about 1/2 cup, depending on your waffle iron); sprinkle with 2 tablespoons toasted pecans. Cook until golden brown, then transfer the waffle to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with the remaining batter. Top the waffles with butter and maple syrup.

Steps:

• Preheat waffle maker. Whisk together first 4 ingredients. In another bowl, whisk together egg yolks, milk and oil; add to flour mixture, stirring just until moistened., In a clean bowl, beat egg whites on medium speed until stiff but not dry. Fold into batter. Bake waffles according to manufacturer's directions until golden brown, sprinkling batter with pecans after pouring. Freeze option: Cool waffles on wire racks. Freeze between layers of waxed paper in a freezer container. Reheat waffles in a toaster or toaster oven on medium setting.

Steps:

• Cherry Sauce: Combine cherries with maple syrup and honey in a small saucepan.
• Bring to simmering (meanwhile, start toasting your pecans for the waffles and make the waffle batter).
• Dissolve cornstarch in water and stir into cherry mixture.
• Cook, stirring, 1 minute or until thickened.
• Remove from heat.
• Makes 2 1/2 cups.
• Waffles: Heat waffle iron. Heat oven to 225. (I heated my oven at 350 to toast the pecans and didn't bother heating at 225 because there weren't any leftovers to keep warm).
• Combine flours, toasted pecans, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt in a large bowl.
• Make a well in the center.
• Whisk butter and brown sugar in a medium-size bowl until blended.
• Whisk in eggs and milk.
• Add to well and stir to blend.
• Let stand 5 minutes.
• Coat waffle iron lightly with nonstick cooking spray (if my iron needs coating, I use my butter wrappers to coat instead because I prefer the butter flavor and it makes good use of all the butter).
• Spoon batter onto iron.
• Cover and cook 4 minutes or until browned.
• Remove waffles. Stack between sheets of waxed paper on a baking sheet and keep warm in heated 225 oven (I skipped this step).
• Repeat with remaining batter and serve with sauce.
• Combine flo.
