RECIPE: WHOLE-WHEAT WAFFLES In a large mixing bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, butter, honey, cinnamon, and baking soda until well combined. Add in the flour, baking powder, and salt and whisk together just until the large lumps disappear. When the waffle iron is hot, dab it with a little butter and then ladle some batter onto the center of the iron. GUEST RECIPE: HONEY SWEETENED BLUEBERRY JAM FROM FOOD IN JARS Instructions. Pour the berries into a low, wide, non-reactive pan and mash. Add the honey and lemon juice and stir to combine. Let the mixture sit until the honey begins to dissolve. Place the pan on the stove and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring regularly, for 10 to 12 minutes, until the jam thickens.
