Description:
Almond flour (which is basically ground almonds) adds flavor and tenderness to these whole wheat waffles. They're low in fat and perfect topped with a simple berry sauce. Use a mix of all three berries or pick your favorites. Make the berry sauce one day ahead if you like.

Light and crisp

By Rosie

Whole wheat and almond flours work beautifully in this recipe. Waffles are crisp, light and the berry sauce is the perfect topping!
