Equipment

Ingredients

3/4 cup carrots peeled & boiled until very soft (about 30 minutes), drained and mashed
1 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1/4 cup cornmeal
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
2 tablespoons firmly packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon ginger grated
1 3/4 cups milk
1/2 cup oil

Instructions

Cook carrots in boiling water until very soft.
Drain carrots and mash them.
In a bowl, combine pastry flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, sugar, cloves and ground ginger.
In another bowl, combine carrots, fresh ginger, milk and oil. Beat well.
Add to dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Preheat and grease waffle iron and cook, per your waffle maker instructions.
For my round Oster waffle iron, I used approximately 3/4 cup of batter for each waffle and cooked about 6 minutes each.

Notes

You will need approximately 5 medium sized carrots.

If you do not have whole wheat pastry flour, you can use half all purpose flour and half whole wheat flour.
