Ever snce I was given a Belgian waffle maker a couple of years ago, light, fluffy waffles have been on the breakfast menu most weekends. Now waffles may not be the most healthful of breakfast foods, but it is certainly possible to enjoy a healthier version without compromising on taste. Plus, much of what's wrong with a breakfast featuring waffles (or pancakes) is what's served alongside them or on top of them. So if you can manage without butter or cream, drizzle rather than drown them in maple syrup, and enjoy some fresh fruit on top, then waffles can easily fit in to a low fat diet.
