Saturday breakfast:

I love lavender shortbread - so I figured I might as well throw some lavender in my Saturday waffles and see what happens.

Lavender Waffles with Blueberry Honey Butter:

• 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 1/2 cups lukewarm milk (I used a milk and greek yogurt mixture)
• 1/3 cup melted butter or vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon of dried food-grade lavender
• 10-15 chocolate chips per waffle (if you like chocolate with your lavender!)

Blueberry-honey butter:

Mix equal parts raw honey, butter and blueberry preserves

Enjoy with strong coffee and NPR on the side for an insightful breakfast!

Happy Saturday!
