Kale-Spinach-Pear Waffles

There’s something so comforting about blending greens, fruit, and grains into a warm waffle. I made these one quiet morning while my little one played nearby, the kitchen filled with that soft, sweet smell of pear and maple syrup. These waffles come out fluffy, just lightly sweet, and full of good things. They freeze beautifully too, so there’s always something nourishing ready for busy mornings.
