Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ginger, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  2. Separate eggs and place egg whites in a medium bowl. Set aside yolks in a larger bowl. With a handheld electric mixer, beat egg whites on high speed until soft peaks form. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat egg yolks with melted coconut oil, molasses, yogourt, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Fold flour mixture into liquid until just combined. Very gently fold in whipped egg whites and chocolate chips. Add a sprinkle or two extra spelt flour if dough seems to wet.
  4. Cook waffles on a waffle iron, according to manufacturers instructions until waffles are golden brown. Serve immediately with maple syrup.
Recipe Notes

I like to enjoy my waffles with a dollop of plain yogourt and some caramelized bananas!

To make quick caramelized banana's :

Heat a small skillet over medium-high heat and spray with coconut oil. Break off about ⅔ of your banana, slice it into smaller pieces then cut each piece in half lengthwise (so that the banana seeds are exposed in each piece). Cook the bananas seed side down until the bottoms turn golden brown.
 *Also these waffles can easily be kept in the freezer for approximately 2 months. To freeze, place a sheet of wax paper between each waffle, then wrap waffles tightly in aluminum foil or place in heavy-duty freezer bag.

As of today I am officially feeling some-what in the mood to start decorating the entire house. Sunday cannot roll around any quicker! My plan is to go full tilt and get everything in place so I can start focusing on my Christmas shopping and holiday crafting. Gosh do I ever love this time of year. The smells of freshly cut spruce trees, hot chocolate, (let me re-phrase that..anything chocolate!), pomegranate season, ugly christmas sweaters, holiday parties, craft shows, and of course my all time favourite Christmas carols, specifically the 1998 “Home for Christmas” CD by the one and only Nsync 🙂 don’t judge, you know you love it too!
