These multigrain waffles are super filling, with ingredients like chia seeds and flax to add extra fiber. My kids love these waffles with chocolate chips!

Ingredients
cooking spray
1 ¾ cups almond milk
½ cup unsweetened applesauce
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons chia seeds
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ¼ cups whole wheat flour
½ cup rolled oats
¼ cup flax seed meal
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons white sugar, or more to taste
¼ teaspoon salt (Optional)
Directions
Preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions; spray the inside with cooking spray.
Whisk almond milk, applesauce, egg, chia seeds, and vanilla extract together in a bowl; let sit until chia seeds start to thicken mixture, about 2 minutes.
Whisk flour, oats, flax seed meal, baking powder, sugar, and salt into almond milk mixture until batter is smooth.
Scoop 1/2 cup batter into the preheated waffle iron and cook until crisp and golden, about 5 minutes per waffle. Repeat with remaining batter.
Cook’s Note
These waffles freeze beautifully. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Flash-freeze the waffles for 30 minutes. Place frozen waffles in a freezer bag. Toast individually frozen waffles in a toaster oven for 5 minutes.
Before serving, place cooked waffles on paper towels to avoid sogginess.
