Ingredients

• 1 cup all-    purpose flour
• 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour 
• 1/2 cup stone-ground cornmeal
• 1 Tbs. sugar
• 2 tsp. baking powder
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1 1/2 cups milk
• 1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese

Preparation

• In a large bowl, stir together the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the milk, ricotta, eggs and oil. Stir the milk mixture into the flour mixture just until smooth.
• Coat a waffle maker lightly with oil, wiping off any excess with a paper towel. Preheat to medium according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Spoon about 1/2 cup batter onto the hot waffle maker, spreading it out to the edges. Close the lid and cook until the waffle is golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• Serve the waffles with a dollop of yogurt on top, scattered with sliced strawberries. Makes 6 waffles; serves 4 to 6.
