Review of 'Nature's Path' Maple Cinnamon Frozen Waffles

Nature's Path -- Maple Cinnamon Frozen Waffles (vegan)
Overall Rating: 4.5/5
Summary: These waffles are soft and chewy when lightly toasted and gets nice and crispy when toasted a wee bit more. They're fantastic both ways, but I personally prefer them slightly crispy. The maple cinnamon flavour is super strong, both maple *and* cinnamon! I'll definitely be buying this again.

Where to buy: Metro, Fortinos



Ingredients: water, whole wheat meal* and/or flour*, granulated sugar cane juice*, soy oil*, baking powder, maple syrup*, oat bran*, natural flavour, cinnamon*, soy lecithin*, sea salt.

*Organic. Contains soy and wheat.

All wholesome and organic ingredients give a really nice nutritional profile, especially for waffles! Two waffles are only 180 cals, low in fat, fairly low in sodium for 1 meal, and have a good amount of fibre and protein. This is actually a really great breakfast, especially if you pair it with a nut butter and some fruit! You could seriously skip the maple syrup since it's included in the ingredients and the flavour is strong. Try agave syrup!
