How to Make Rhubarb Waffles With Rhubarb Sauce Low Fat

**Make the Rhubarb Sauce:** In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups chopped rhubarb and ½ cup granulated sugar.
Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally.
Cook until the rhubarb is tender and translucent, about 8-10 minutes.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer about 1 cup of the cooked rhubarb to a small bowl and set aside for the waffle batter.
Continue to simmer the remaining rhubarb mixture over medium heat until slightly thickened, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
**Make the Waffles:** In a large bowl, whisk 3 large egg whites until frothy.
Whisk in 1 ½ cups milk and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil.
Stir in the reserved 1 cup of cooked rhubarb.
In a medium bowl, sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
Gently stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
Preheat your waffle iron to medium-high heat. Lightly grease the iron with cooking spray or oil if needed.
Pour about ¾ cup of batter onto the hot waffle iron.
Close the lid and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp. Do not open the lid before then!
Repeat with the remaining batter, lightly greasing the iron between batches if necessary.
Serve the waffles immediately, topped with the warm rhubarb sauce.
