• Bring lemon zest, sugar, and ⅔ cup water to a boil in a heavy medium saucepan, stirring until sugar dissolves. Cook (do not stir) until a thin syrup forms, 6-8 minutes. Add blueberries and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium; cook, stirring constantly, 2 minutes.
• Transfer 2 Tbsp. syrup to a small bowl, add cornstarch, and stir until smooth. Add back to syrup; simmer until thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Fish out lemon zest and discard. Squeeze in lemon juice to taste and let cool slightly.
• Waffles and assembly:
• Whisk flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the center and add yogurt, then melted butter, then egg to well. Using a fork, stir together wet ingredients, then mix, incorporating dry ingredients a little at a time, until a lumpy batter forms.
• Heat waffle iron on medium-low. Lightly coat with nonstick spray and pour a heaping ½ cup batter onto iron (or up to 2 cups if using a larger one). Cook until waffles are golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. (Keep warm on a baking sheet in a 300° oven if desired.) Repeat with remaining batter, coating iron with more nonstick spray as needed. Serve with butter and warm syrup.

Steps:

• Preheat a waffle maker according to manufacturer's directions.
• Whisk whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, oat flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Whisk egg yolks, milk, canola oil, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl. Beat egg whites in a third bowl (not plastic) with an electric mixer until soft peaks form when you lift the beaters straight out of the beaten eggs, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour the milk mixture into the well; mix batter until smooth. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter, retaining as much volume as possible. Let batter stand until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
• Pour 1/2 cup of batter, or amount recommended by the manufacturer, onto the waffle maker; close lid and bake waffle until browned and crisp, 2 to 4 minutes.
