Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cup rolled oats
- 1 cup oat milk
- 1 medium egg
- ¼ cup coconut oil melted and cooled
- ¼ cup maple syrup or honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Start with preparing and measuring all the ingredients. I like to use measuring cups.
- Take the blender and add all ingredients. Note: add wet ingredients first for easier blending.
- Mix everything at high speed until you get a smooth texture.
- Taste the batter and add additional sweetener if you think the mixture is not sweet enough.
- Let the batter rest for a few minutes.
- Turn on the waffle maker and let it heat until it's hot (the green light must be on).
- Coat waffle plates with cooking spray or melted coconut oil using the brush.
- Pour the batter onto the hot waffle plates, close the lid and allow the waffles to cook. Depending on your waffle maker it will take between 8-10 minutes per batch.
- Once baked, remove waffles from the waffle maker and place them on a cooling rack. Fresh baked waffles will be soft when you take them out of the waffle maker but they will harden as they cool on the rack.
- Repeating the process with the rest of the batter. Make sure to grease the waffle plates before adding the batter to prevent sticking.
- Transfer cooled waffles to a plate.
- Add toppings (optional): I used banana, blueberries, and maple syrup. Be creative here and add toppings you like.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
As a measure, I used a US cup (240ml).
Substitutions
- You can substitute oat milk with any milk - organic soy milk, cashew milk, or almond milk. Cow’s milk works well too. Coconut milk won’t work well here.
- You can substitute coconut oil with avocado oil.
- You can substitute maple syrup and use honey. Make sure honey is in runny form. Date syrup or stevia is a great option too.
- Keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- How to freeze? Take your cooked and cooled waffles and place each waffle individually in wax paper bags or stack between wax paper. Store wrapped waffles in a large freezer zip-lock bag. Keep in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw them at room temperature.
- Waffles can be warmed in the microwave. Be careful not to overheat them.
