Recipe: vanilla toffee waffles with fruit
I can't lay claim to the greater part of this recipe. The original waffle recipe comes from Siobhan on the wonderful Slimming Eats site.

I'm not going to steal someone else's recipe so please click on the link to get the recipe, then read the changes I made to it.
I use a level half tsp of baking powder and find that just right.
I use Mullerlight toffee yogurt (for one syn); 60 mls (1/4 cup or around 60g) in the waffle mix and the rest on the accompanying fruit.
I find that a scant half a tbsp of sweetener (I use Stevia) is more than enough with an already sweet yogurt.
I use a gloop of vanilla bean paste.
To make the waffles:
Ten minutes before I want to cook them, I turn my waffle maker on to high. This gives it enough time to really heat up properly.
After ten minutes, I mix up the batter. It's very quick, especially when I zizz the oats beforehand.
I spray each quarter of the waffle maker, top and bottom, with one spray of Fry Light each and brush it round with a pastry brush.
Then I tip the batter into the middle of the waffle maker and roughly spread it out using the back of a spoon. The amount in this recipe is perfect for one circle of waffles.
I close up the waffle maker, turn it over (because that's what mine does) and leave it to cook for ten minutes. Then I turn it back, open it up and the waffles are perfectly cooked and come out cleanly and without difficulty.
You can also make them in a mould. Preheat the oven to 180, spray oil the mould and distribute the batter evenly. Pop in the oven for 30 mins, then tip them out and finish them off on a baking sheet for five to ten minutes.
