Spinach and Cheese Waffles

Notes: these are best with a flavorful cheese. They are great topped with a fried egg, but would also be wonderful drizzled with a little garlic butter. 

Makes 4 large waffles. 

1 1/2 cups flour (all whole wheat works great, but white or a mix is good, too)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1 egg
1 1/2 cups milk
1/3 cup oil
1 1/2 cups shredded cheese (sharp cheddar, smoked gouda, pepperjack, etc.)
3-4 cups loosely packed spinach, chopped

Preheat a waffle iron.

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. In a separate bowl, whisk together egg, milk, and oil. Add to flour mixture and gently stir until just combined. Fold in cheese and spinach. Cook waffles according to waffle iron's manufacturer's directions.
