Vegan Oat Waffles

These waffles are made from wholesome ingredients and are simply delicious for breakfast in bed! You can enjoy them as per the recipe below or add your own flair by adding grated apple, dark choc chips, sliced banana, just to name a few! 

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/4 cups milk of your choice
  • 1 tsp vinegar
  • 1/4 cup melted butter or olive oil
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup (or less if you would prefer to add sweetness at the end)
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • 1 3/4 cups gluten free flour (or plain regular flour)
  • 1/2 cup traditional oats
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • pinch sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon

 

Method:

  1. In a small bowl combine milk and vinegar (to make buttermilk). Allow to sit for a few minutes.
  2. Add oil and maple syrup to the buttermilk. Mix well.
  3. In a large bowl add all dry ingredients. Mix well.
  4. Add wet ingredients to the dry. Combine thoroughly with a wooden spoon.
  5. Turn on waffle machine whilst allowing mixture to sit for 5 – 10 minutes.
  6. Lightly spray waffle machine and place approx. 1/2 cup mixture onto each waffle grill. Cook according to machine instructions. You can add additional ingredients, such as the grated apple, mixed berries or choc chips to the batter before closing the lid to cook through the mixture.

 

Notes:

  • Add grated apple to the mixture for a delicious apple waffle.
  • Add choc chips for a special treat!
  • Enjoy waffles topped with banana, fresh berries, yoghurt, maple syrup or simply lemon & sugar.
  • To ‘pimp’ your waffles, you can add chia seeds, flaxseed, walnuts, oat flour for added fibre and nutrients.
