Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Oats (rolled or quick oats)
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Cinnamon (optional)
- 1.75 cups Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Butter or neutral oil (melted)
- Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a blender or food processor, process the oats until they become a fine flour-like consistency.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon (if using). Whisk to mix well.
In another medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and honey or maple syrup (if using).
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Avoid over-mixing the batter.
Stir in the melted butter or oil to ensure the batter is smooth and cohesive.
Lightly grease the waffle iron plates with non-stick cooking spray.
Pour the batter into the preheated waffle iron, using the recommended amount per your waffle iron's guidelines (usually about 1/3 to 1/2 cup).
Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffle is golden brown and crisp. This usually takes 4-5 minutes depending on your waffle iron.
Carefully remove the waffle and repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, syrup, yogurt, or nut butter.
