How to Make Gingerbread Waffles Healthy Low Fat

Preheat your waffle iron.
In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour, ½ cup rolled oats, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1 cup almond milk (or other milk alternative), 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons molasses, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. Do not overmix.
Lightly grease your preheated waffle iron. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the hot waffle iron surface.
Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with remaining batter.
Serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, sugar-free caramel sauce, or a dollop of whipped cream. Leftovers can be frozen for up to 3 months. To reheat, microwave for 30-60 seconds, then toast briefly for a crispy texture.
