Buttermilk Cinnamon Waffles

The acidity of buttermilk reacts with the baking soda to produce a taste similar to sourdough bread. Buttermilk is lower in carbs than regular milk.

1 cup Atkins Quick CuisineTM Bake Mix
2 tablespoons granular sugar substitute
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup buttermilk
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 large eggs
3 tablespoons sugar-free vanilla syrup
1/2 cup cold water
Vegetable oil spray for greasing waffle iron

1. Heat waffle iron per manufacturer's instructions. Whisk together bake mix, sugar substitute, cinnamon, baking powder and baking soda. Add buttermilk, butter, eggs and syrupand stir until well blended (batter will be stiff). Add cold water 1 tablespoon at a time until batter is easily spoonable and spreadable, about the consistency of a thick pancake batter.
2. Spray waffle iron with oil spray. Place approximately 3 tablespoons of batter in center of a waffle iron. Cook according to manufacturer's instructions until crisp and dark golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve warm.
