Flip over these blue speckled treats

These yummy blueberry waffles are worth all the effort and mess in mixing batter and working with a waffle iron. Blueberry waffles have more flavor and nutritional content when compared to regular waffles. Hide a serving of fruit in every waffle that you serve the kids with this recipe:

What you will need:

Waffle iron
1 Wooden spoon
1 large bowl
1 cup blueberries, chopped
2 cups flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 whole eggs
1 ½ cups milk
5 tablespoons melted shortening
4 tablespoons melted butter

Cooking and Directions:

Combine flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in bowl. Add two eggs, milk, melted shortening, and melted butter. Mix well. Add chopped blueberries. Again, mix well. Cook in a waffle iron until crisp. Follow the instructions for your waffle iron. Serve blueberry waffles with butter, powdered sugar, pancake syrup, or honey.
