How’d your waffles turn out? I prefer the strawberries, but I wouldn’t have complained about the blueberries, as I wasn’t making them.

Did “Ugghhhnnnnn...” enjoy them?

You have to follow up with this info, and maybe pictures, if you’re going tease everyone about making homemade waffles.

"... if you’re going tease everyone about making homemade waffles. ..."

The waffles were yummy. (Sorry, I didn't take any pictures.)
But even though I used some low glycemic-index flours
like buckwheat and almond flour, I did also use some
all-purpose and whole wheat flours (higher glycemic- index).

And I - being a diabetic - had my blood sugar numbers
spike into the mid-300s - which is not good.

So I skipped lunch, drank about a half gallon of water,
went to the bathroom five times, and by dinner time my
number was down to 99 (which IS good).

But the waffles were good, and worth it.
Gotta bend or flat-out break the rules once in a while
and LIVE a little - if you can call something so 'extravagant'
as making a batch of waffles 'extravagant'.
And yes I used Suralose/Splenda instead of sugar in them.

I quite dislike having diabetes, I'll tell ya.
But that's the reason for the 'tease' - for me waffles
really are a major event.

I'll do it again next year when a big snowstorm comes.

Try waffles with mini-morsels.

The chocolate makes them awesome.
