Sweetheart Waffles

February 6, 2016 by Dinner Tonight

Valentine’s Day is a great time to share breakfast with someone you love. Our Sweetheart Waffles are a low-fat option for a quick breakfast recipe.  We reduced the fat in this recipe by using unsweetened applesauce which also makes these waffles moist.   Add this to your list of recipes for a great Valentine’s Day treat.
