Can you think of a better way to start the day than with a light and fluffy chocolate whole wheat waffle?

One that is topped with a bit of drippy peanut butter and mayyybe a smattering of juicy fresh berries?

I think not friends, I think not.

Now, I will admit that I am a complete creature of habit when it comes to breakfast. And that for the last year or so I’ve made a batch of these chocolate buckwheat pancakes just about every single weekend to prep for the work week ahead.

But … stop the presses! Because today’s whole wheat waffles have officially entered into the weekly rotation. And have actually taken the lead because they are the husband’s new favorite.

And I can absolutely see why.

They are soft and fluffy and packed with chocolate-y goodness … and reheat in the toaster beautifully (making them most excellent for quick breakfasts during the week).

All while being made with 100% whole wheat flour (and um, some cocoa powder, but that was probably a bit obvious huh?).

They fill you up, taste deeelicious and couldn’t be easier. I think I foresee some waffles in your near future. Am I right or am I right?

So! Today’s post is coming at you in partnership with Bob’s Red Mill. It is absolutely no secret that they are one of my very favorite brands. The quality of their ingredients never fails to impress me (we are what we eat, yes??) – making them a complete staple in my kitchen.

And their organic whole wheat flour (oh hey there waffles!) is no exception. It’s rich in dietary fiber and protein AND is a good source of essential minerals, like magnesium, zinc and iron. Packing a nutritional punch so we can feel awesome first thing in the morning. Waffles for the win.

Tips & Tricks For These Chocolate Whole Wheat Waffles

1. First up, let’s talk measuring out your flour. Fluff the flour in the bag / container with a spoon. Then use the spoon to scoop the flour into your measuring cup, before leveling off with the back of a knife. This is especially important with this recipe to keep the waffles nice and light! If you dunk the measuring cup into the flour bag, you’ll likely use too much.
2. Along those lines, please don’t skip the two tablespoons cornstarch. It also helps to achieve that awesome texture in the final product.
3. The waffles themselves are not super sweet – but this is intentional so that you can top however you would like. My personal favorite? A good smear of nut butter + fresh fruit / chia seed jam. SO GOOD.
4. The cook time for the recipe may vary slightly depending on the size of your waffle maker.

How To Store

Let’s talk make ahead options. Cook up your waffles and let them cool down to room temperature.

To freeze: Wrap individually in plastic wrap, then place in a baggie or container and stick in the freezer. When ready to enjoy, thaw briefly in the microwave, then pop in the toaster.

To keep in the fridge: Place the waffles in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 4 days. When ready to enjoy, pop in the toaster to reheat.
