1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup wheat germ
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar
3 egg yolks, slightly beaten
1 3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup fresh cranberries, chopped
3/4 cup chopped nuts
3 egg whites, stiffly beaten

Stir together flour, wheat germ, baking powder, salt and sugar. Combine yolks, milk and oil. Add to dry ingredients. Mix well. Stir in cranberries and nuts. Folk in egg whites.

For a lower fat waffle, substitute unsweetened applesauce for half the oil. If you don't have fresh cranberries, use 1 cup craisins or orange. Craisins soaked in hot water 5 minutes and then drained.

Makes 6 Belgian waffles, 12 regular waffles or about 20 pancakes.
