Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1.5 cup old-fashioned rolled oats not quick oats
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1.25 cup milk dairy or unsweetened almond milk
- 2 large egg
- 2 tablespoon unsalted butter melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup optional, for lightly sweet batter
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil for greasing the waffle iron
- 0.25 cup mini chocolate chips optional
- 0.5 cup fresh blueberries optional
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat the waffle iron to medium-high heat.
- Blend the oats into a fine flour: add the rolled oats to a blender and process until powdery.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the oat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, melted butter, vanilla, and maple syrup until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to thicken.
- Lightly grease the waffle iron with vegetable oil. If using add-ins, fold them into the batter now.
- Ladle about 0.5 cup of batter onto the hot waffle iron. Close and cook until deeply golden and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes, or according to your waffle maker’s instructions.
- Serve warm with butter, fruit, and maple syrup. Keep finished waffles warm on a low oven rack while cooking the rest.
Notes
For extra-crisp waffles, cook a little longer and avoid overcrowding the waffle maker. Batter thickness may vary by oats; thin with a splash of milk if it gets too thick.
