Spelt waffles

Ingredients

• 300g organic wholewheat spelt flour
• 100g organic fine spelt flour
• 1⁄2 tsp sea salt
• 2-3 tsp ground cardamom powder (OR 1 tsp vanilla powder OR 1-2 tsp vanilla essence OR 1–2 tsp almond essence OR the juice of 1 lemon)
• 2 organic eggs (optional, but without them you’ll need to increase the butter or oil to 100g)
• 400 ml milk you prefer or organic pure yoghurt
• 300-400 ml water (or more milk/yoghurt - your choice)
• 40g organic cold-pressed olive oil or melted organic butter (around 5 tbsp). My mum uses 100g melted butter always and skips the eggs, that is very lovely as well:)

Method

1. Simply mix the dry ingredients and then work in the remaining ingredients, finishing with the oil or butter, to make a dough like a thin porridge.
2. Heat your waffle iron until the light goes out.
3. Add a little of the dough – you’ll work out exactly how much after a couple of waffles.
4. Close the waffle iron and the light will come on, then go off when the waffle is cooked.
