This Belgian waffle recipe comes out crispy and fluffy every time, and it’s made without milk. This is my family’s favorite and it’s naturally gluten-free, using super healthy and good for you oats!
My husband has a not-so-secret secret love affair with this waffle recipe.
Actually, his love for waffles was kept secret for a while. I’m thinking he didn’t want me to see how he must have both butter and syrup in every square hole of the waffle.
Well, we’ve been married nearly 11 years so far and if his only weird tendency is to love butter and syrup and this waffle recipe, I say things are going pretty well.
Especially considering that this waffle recipe is made with oatmeal.
SHUT THE FRONT DOOR, yes these are cinnamon oatmeal waffles and they are gloriously delicious, ridiculously easy and the official breakfast for all Saturdays from now until eternity.
Or at least until we run out of syrup.
Cinnamon Oatmeal Blender Waffles: The Best Waffle Recipe
According to my husband waffles are one of those things that you either do right, or do terribly wrong. For him, the right waffle is:
- Light.
- Fluffy.
- Belgian.
- Crispy.
If a waffle isn’t ALL of these things, then it’s wrong. Just like that. There is no in-between.
Thankfully, this waffle recipe meets all of his criteria, plus one of mine: healthy!
The crispy and fluffy waffle recipe that’s perfect every time.
In all my research, I learned that there are two important pieces needed to create a good waffle:
1. Butter
Butter is what makes the waffle crispy and fluffy. If you skimp on the butter, your waffle will taste “okay,” but it won’t be great. It also won’t be nearly as good leftover, even if you do toast it.
I use only butter (no substitutes) when I make this recipe as-is. Because butter is so amazingly good and good for you. More often though, I double the recipe (an easy way to work smarter, not harder) and will use half butter half coconut oil.
2. A Good Waffle Maker
After realizing my husband’s love affair with this waffle recipe, I invested in a double waffle maker identical to this one, except I got mine at Walmart for half the price.
It makes AMAZING waffles with deep pockets AND it is quick. I can’t recommend it enough!
Easy Waffle Recipe Ingredients
Let’s break this cinnamon oatmeal waffle recipe down a bit and discuss the main players:
- Oat Flour. Oats are super healthy for you and crazy cheap.
- Maple Syrup (optional). Every recipe I’ve found says to add sugar, but since I’m trying to keep this a healthy recipe, I switched to maple syrup and reduced the amount used. I also added molasses because I love the depth of flavor, but both can be omitted without seriously changing the flavor of the waffle.
- Butter. I would recommend going 50/50 with coconut oil if you double the recipe.
- Eggs.
- Cinnamon: If you don’t like cinnamon, omit it, but you might want to add in something else for flavor because this spice is the star of the show.
How to Make this Homemade Belgian Waffle Recipe
Making blender waffles is so easy, you’ll want to keep this recipe on hand for when you need to make breakfast quickly.
- Blend dry ingredients together until they resemble flour (here’s the blender I use).
- Add wet ingredients and blend. Then add melted butter and blend again.
- Let batter sit for 5 minutes (for the oats to absorb the water) while waffle iron heats.
- Pour the desired amount of batter into the waffle iron and cook the waffle as desired, or according to manufacturer directions.
It is that simple!

I recommend freezing waffles in a single layer, and then transferred to a freezer-safe bag
Another option is to place a piece of parchment or wax paper between each waffle and freeze in a stack. I haven’t tried this method myself because both parchment paper and wax paper are pricy (in my opinion), so I go with method #1. It’s the cheapest and it works.
How to Reheat Frozen Waffles:
A toaster is a great way to reheat frozen waffles, assuming your toaster is large enough. You might have to break the whole waffle into halves or quarters so it fits.
We don’t have a toaster, so we reheat in the oven. I place frozen waffles directly on a rack in the middle of the oven and turn the oven to 350F. By the time our oven preheats, the waffle is ready.
Note: My oven takes an eternity to preheat, so the waffle is in there for a good 10-15 minutes. Your oven probably preheats faster, so the first time you reheat a waffle, use a timer and check on it every 5 minutes or so. Once you know how fast (or long) it takes, you can set the timer for the total time the next time you re-heat.
Are pancake and waffle mix the same?
I have not used this recipe for pancakes, personally, but my readers have!
One reader reported that she uses half the amount of fat in order to make pancakes, so instead of 6 Tbsp of butter, she uses 3 Tbsp of coconut oil. Feel free to try it out and let me know what works best for pancakes in the comment section.
What is the difference between a waffle and a Belgian waffle?
Belgian waffles have deeper pockets and are known for being crispy and fluffy. Regular waffles are thinner. Many regular waffle recipes don’t call for eggs. This recipe does use eggs, so it should result in a delicious, crispy and fluffy Belgian waffle.
How do you make Belgian waffles from scratch?
Simple, follow my recipe! It is so easy to make and may become a regular item on your breakfast menu.
What to serve with this homemade waffle recipe?
A few of my favorites to serve with this waffle recipe are:
I also use this recipe in lieu of bread for kids lunches, so you can make peanut butter and jelly waffle “sandwiches” that taste amazing!
Can I make this a dry waffle mix recipe?
Yes! Simply prepare the recipe through the dry ingredients and store in an airtight container.
When you’re ready to make waffles, simply melt the butter, add water, eggs, and optional sweeteners to the mix and blend!
Can I use milk instead of water in this Belgian waffle recipe?
I tried making these with milk instead of water and didn’t notice a positive change in taste or texture, so I definitely recommend water. Strange, but trust me, it works!

Cinnamon Oatmeal Waffles
This Belgian waffle recipe comes out crispy and fluffy every time, and it’s made without milk. This is my family’s favorite and it’s naturally gluten-free!
- Prep Time: 10 mins
- Cook Time: 5 mins
- Total Time: 15 minutes
- Yield: 4–5 waffles 1x
- Category: Breakfast
- Method: Blender
- Cuisine: American
Ingredients
- 6 Tbsp butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 1 ¾ cup rolled oats
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1–2 Tbsp maple syrup (optional)
- 1 tsp molasses (optional)
- 1–1 1/2 cups water
- 2 eggs
Instructions
- Melt butter and set aside to cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, measure oats, baking powder, salt and cinnamon into the blender. Process on high until the mixture resembles flour, about one minute.
- Add 1 cup water, eggs and optional sweeteners and blend on high* into a batter, about one minute.
- Add the butter and again, blend on high *for about one minute.
- Allow the batter to sit for 5 minutes and preheat the waffle iron according to manufacturer directions.
- Stir the batter well. At this point the batter should be thin enough to *just* run off the spatula, but no thinner. If it doesn’t, add 1/4 cup water and re-blend.
- Pour the desired amount of batter** into the waffle iron. The batter will not spread on its own, so use a spatula to spread it all the way to the edges. Cook the waffle as desired, or according to manufacturer directions.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, stirring well before pouring onto the waffle iron.
Notes
* Make sure you lid is on tight and blend on high so that the tiny specks of oat flour incorporate well with the liquids and absorb them. If the oat flour is too large, it will not absorb the liquid properly and your batter could be runny.
** My waffle iron came with a scoop that is just the right amount of batter for the waffle iron. The Frozen-themed waffle iron did not, and it used 1/4 cup batter for each waffle. Every waffle maker is different, but if I had to guess, I’d say use 1/2 to 3/4 cup batter. Remember that this batter is thick and will not spread to the edges of the iron, so be sure to use a spatula to get the batter to the edges.
*** Some have stated that this batter is too thin. When you follow the recipe as written, the batter should *just* run off a spatula when dipped in and pulled out of the batter. If it is very runny, add 1/4 cup oats and re-blend until it reaches this thickness.
I can’t wait to try these! Did you try making with milk instead of water? I’ve made many waffle recipies and all of them call for milk, just curious what difference you noticed. The parchment does work to freeze them without sticking. I found it at Aldi for $3 for a big roll during the holidays and stocked up ; )
Your blog is wonderful! It has given me motivation to eat healthy on a budget and try to DIY as much as I can. Thank you!
Hi Erin! I did try making these with milk instead of water, and didn’t notice a positive change in taste or texture, so I definitely recommend water. Strange, I know!
I’m so glad my blog is encouraging you! That makes my day. 🙂 Fantastic idea on the parchment paper – I should have done the same! Next year… 🙂
Water is better!! I had to try it both ways & the finished texture is fantastic with water. I may be adding the collagen for more protein in the future but not milk.
I’m trying the chocolate waffles tomorrow!
Ooh – the chocolate waffles are EVEN BETTER!!!
I made these this morning, however, was quite disappointed. The waffles were soft and very flat although the favor was nice, wasn’t really a waffle.
Hi there! I recommend cooking the waffle for longer. Crunchy/soft isn’t a batter issue with these, it’s a waffle iron issue. I have to cook mine for 3-4 minutes LONGER than when my iron says they’re done.
Made this. No butter, instead Used 3 tsp oil and 1 tbs of cornstarch, and a mashed banana. Turned out well.

I just made these and they are delicious! My family loves waffles, and I have been making some gluten free ones with sunbutter as the base, and while those aren’t too expensive, they are still pricier than I prefer. I love that these are gluten free, have such few ingredients, and are inexpensive, while maintaining an amazing taste and texture! Thanks so much for all your experimentation to give us this wonderful recipe!
★★★★★
You’re so welcome AnnaKathryn! I’m glad you guys enjoyed them! I was surprised too at how simple and inexpensive the recipe is, yet SO good!
Thanks for the recipe! I did use milk for added calories. It was easy and delicious.
★★★★★
You’re very welcome!
I just made these today and the batter was very runny – not thick. I did everything and measured according to your recipe but the mixture was just runny and the waffles were “holey” and did not make a thick waffle like in your picture. I used 1 3/4 c rolled oats and followed everything else except no cinnamon and no sweeteners. Thoughts?
Hi Sara! Are you sure you followed the recipe exactly? If the batter was very runny, it sounds like there was too much water. Also, the batter needs to sit for 5 minutes for the oats to absorb water, and it will continue to get thicker as it sits. If you followed the recipe as-written, you can remedy by adding more oats, about 2 Tbsp at a time until the batter thickens.
I had the exact same problem! And I only use 1 cup of liquid, we had hollow waffles, my family seemed to like them ok.
Katrina, did you make sure to let it sit for a little bit for the oats to absorb the liquid? Also one reader had to adjust their blend to High to make sure it blended up all the oats to thicken the recipe. That might help!
I just followed this recipe and I use 1 cup of water (Not 1 1/2) nice and thick batter like it should be.
★★★★★
These are SO delicious! I had the same problem as Sara the first batch because I used the lowest setting on my blender to process the oat mixture into flour. I think I was worried about it flying everywhere and making dust lol! So I could still see lots of pieces of oats when the batter was done. It was super runny and the waffle fell apart. So my next batch I processed it on high until the batter was really fine and there were no larger oat pieces left. It absorbed the liquids and made the thick batter. The waffles came out perfectly and didn’t fall apart. I used the max setting on our Hamilton Beach waffle maker because the kids said they wanted them crispy. We loved and ate all the waffles, even the first batch that didn’t stay together and they all tasted great! This recipe is a total keeper for us! Thank you Tiffany!!!
★★★★★
You’re so welcome Madelyn! I appreciate you sharing your blender tips. I have a Blendtec, and use the “batter” setting and never considered how the speed might effect the batter. I’ll be sure to update the recipe. It’s always my goal to be a “keeper” in someone else’s recipe box – thank you for the honor!!
Thank you for the tip!
Thank you so much for a very heart healthy recipe! We can’t wait to try these waffles…will let you know after breakfast how we make out 🙂
I hope you enjoy these as much as we do Michelle!
Any idea on nutritional info on these waffles compared to others? I would imagine yours would be much higher in protein than traditional waffles given the oatmeal…
Charlene
You can input this recipe into a nutrition calculator Charlene, but I tend to agree with you!
I tried it twice and still the same results. Batter was runny and stuck to the waffle iron. I tried doing what others recommended and still was a mess. I let it sit for over an hour and batter was still runny. Yes I followed the recipe to a T!
★
Jezika – I make this recipe every weekend and it’s always turned out without any issues. The batter sticking to your waffle iron is actually not a problem with the batter, but the iron itself. As for the batter, it should thicken up significantly within 5-10 minutes. The batter should be thin enough to *just* run off the spatula. No thinner, and it shouldn’t be gloopy. If it is, you’ll need to add more oats (1/4 cup at a time) and re-blend.
Could you sub wheat flour for the oats?
I haven’t done this Ashlee, and I don’t think I would recommend it. There’s just enough difference between oats and wheat flour where the batter might end up not being what you were looking for!
I had the same issue, I found it I add a touch of flour it comes out right. I wonder if the difference is if you use quick oats or old fashioned oats.
I also substitute applesauce for eggs.
Made this for lunch today it came out great 👍 thanks for the recipe
★★★★★
So glad you liked it Blair!!
Made 3 batches of this today, to serve 26 people for breakfast!! Everyone LOVED it!! Thanks again for the hit Tiffany!!!
★★★★★
You’re so welcome Mary Katherine!!
I don’t normally comment, but WOW! I’ve tried A LOT of waffle recipes on the internet, and this one right here has to be my favorite. It’s much healthier than the traditional store bought batters and the flavor is out of this world. My kids and husband LOVE it. THANK YOU!!! (We’ve made this 2 weeks in a row!)
★★★★★
You’re SO welcome Rachel!!! Thanks for coming back to leave a review and comment!
Hi, I love your recipe! I just wanted to know how much calories in one waffle?
I’m not sure Kayla, but you can use an online nutrition calculator!
What are your thoughts on using honey in place of the syrup/molasses?
You definitely can Susan! I’ve actually stopped using sweetener completely, since we usually add butter and syrup anyway. The family hasn’t noticed!
Using honey? Is there a difference on amounts? like same 1 cup to one cup of honey? Curious… I wish in your recipes that you would tag your blender, I saw it once and now I want to get it, as my vita-mix is just OK,
★★★★★
No difference in amounts Lynard, as it just enhances the flavor. As I mentioned to Susan, we don’t add any sweetener anymore. Here’s a link for my blender: https://dontwastethecrumbs.com/2017/11/ways-to-use-a-blender/!
These are fantastic! My kids say they are the best they’ve had. Question though – do you know of a dairy free alternative for the butter? I’m assuming they wouldn’t come out as good if they were made with oil, but I figured I’d ask just to see if you knew of anyone trying.
Hi Angela! I often quadruple this recipe and split the fat to 50/50 butter/coconut oil. I haven’t made them exclusively with just coconut oil, but I bet you could!
They definitely didn’t come out crispy but taste was good 🙂
Not crispy? Maybe you can tinker with the heat level, or cook longer? Ours are always crispy. Glad they were good!!
I have same waffle maker, which setting are you using on that?
★★★★★
1-2 ticks from dark
I made these today and they came out so well! Delicious and healthy and my kids loved them. I doubled the recipe and it only made 3 waffles though 🤣 I guess my waffle maker just makes extra jumbo waffles? I was hoping to be able to freeze some for later.
★★★★★
My 10 yo made these. They turned out perfect!
Awesome! So glad to hear it Kelli!
This is second time i made this recipe. Today was same result soggy thin waffles. 🙁 only difference eas i ised 2 flax eggs since we have an allergy.
Heather – did you use flaxseed eggs in the first batch too? I really don’t know why these wouldn’t turn out for you. We literally make this exact recipe almost every weekend, and have never had soggy waffles.
Tried these this morning. Delicious! I did use almond milk for a bit of extra protein (I’m not good at protein so I sneak it in when ever I can) and it was a bit too thick so added more to get it right. Next time I will use water! I did make a simple cinnamon sugar syrup for a drizzle along with a cream cheese drizzle. They tasted great and my yeast allergy husband was thrilled it tasted like a cinnamon roll (no longer in his diet).
One suggestion, emphasize that the oats need to be certified gluten free. Some people may making it for celiac friends and not know that is quite critical. I suggest GF Harvest for oats over Bob’s (I have gotten sick on Bob’s as they now use the method of “cleaning” the gluten off the oats.
Thanks for the tip Sandra, and I’m so glad you and your husband enjoyed these waffles!!
If I use egg whites, do I need to adjust anything for leaving out the yolks?
Hi Lynn – I’ve never made these without the yolks, so I can’t make any recommendations other than using them!
I just made these for Sunday breakfast and they came out perfectly – definitely no runny batter, here – following the recipe exactly. I actually considered using the extra half cup of water, but in the end decided to skip it. My 5 year old gobbled them up, and really… is there any tougher critic than a 5 year old? ‘Nuf said!! 🙂
★★★★★
I don’t think there is Jennifer – thank you so much for sharing your feedback!! ♥
I made these waffles with no changes, using 1 cup of water and the 2 TBL of maple syrup.. The batter was thin as other reviewers described, however, it did thicken up slightly after sitting 10-15 minutes. They did not crisp up as my standard wheat flour recipe does but were softer and the inside seemed slightly undercooked. I tried leaving them in a few seconds longer but then they just darkened too much on the outside without any changes to the crispness or insides.
★★
If you make a double batch, let them sit 15 minutes instead of 5. None of mine turned out very fluffy, except the very last one I poured. The batter had thickened just slightly by that point, and it was exactly what it needed to do!
★★★
Thanks for sharing this tip Kristyna!
This recipe is so good. You can’t stop eating them.
★★★★★
I agree – thanks Jean!
I made these as written and they came out perfectly. Thanks for the recipe! I think the quality of blender could be a problem for some of the commenters. I used to have a cheap blender and recipes would come out wrong but I finally invested in a good one and now I have no problems with blender recipes.
I made these last weekend and they were delicious! I used a bit of wheat flour and almond flour because I have so many flours around. I also substituted brown sugar for the sweeter as I like a little drizzle of syrup on top of my waffles. I also love chocolate chips in my waffles so I added a few of those too 😀 I flash froze them and ate them all week for breakfast! So yummy!! I’ll definitley be making these again soon!
Thank you so much for this recipe.
~Carlee
Great additions and substitutions Carlee – I’m so glad you liked them!!
These were delicious, made them for breakfast this morning! Are you Simmons bread for is in turkey bacon tasted better than a make griddle. However I followed the recipe exactly and the batter was perfect but it only made 3 1/2 waffles
★★★★★
I’ve made this recipe several times now and it’s always a hit! Each time I’ve doubled it and frozen the waffles for weekday breakfasts. My boys love them and I love giving them a healthy, EASY breakfast. Thank you so much for sharing your gifts and blessing my family!
★★★★★
Aw, this made my day Kristin – I’m so glad you guys like them!
I really like the look of this recipe and would like to make it, but I don’t have a waffle iron. Would this work as a pancake batter?
I haven’t tested it, but it should come close Arlisa!
I made these this morning for my husband and me. They were absolutely delicious even without all the cinnamon. I only used half the amount in the recipe. I got ahead of myself and added the syrup before blending the dry ingredients and was worried they wouldn’t turn out, but miracles of miracles, this recipe turns out even with a mess up. Thanks for posting such a great and easy recipe!
★★★★★
You’re very welcome Debbie! And you’re right – this is a VERY forgiving recipe!
These turned out amazing!
Can I use coconut butter as a substitute for butter?
Hmmm… I’m not sure Malvi! I’ve subbed coconut oil, because that’s a fat, but I haven’t done coconut butter (which I put in the same category as peanut butter).
I was really excited to see this recipe as it ticked off all the boxes on our “belly friendly” low FODMAP diet. Then I was a bit nervous as the batter looks a bit like chalky wallboard paste. But they were quite good. They took about a minute longer to cook (5 minutes as opposed to 4 for my regular recipe). It’s a bit of a pain to scrape the batter out of the blender so I think next time I’ll make the oust flour in the blender then use a food processor to mix up the rest.
As for our favorite waffles, I like adding pumpkin pie spice instead of straight cinnamon. We serve ours with peanut or almond butter for extra protein.
Thanks Tiffany
You’re very welcome Melissa! So glad they met your expectations. ♥
These are fantastic! My 9 year old made them for a school project. She doubled the recipe and froze them so she and her sister can have homemade waffles on school days. Yay!!!

Hi Tiffany,
These look fab, I was looking but couldn’t see how many Calories this mixture has?
Hi Debra! I don’t track calories, but you’re welcome to look up the ingredients on an online calculator!
Thanks for this recipe!! I usually make almond flour waffles but ran out (and it’s pricey too), so when that happens I switch over to using oat flour for everything! I’m dairy-free so I skip the butter altogether, and use less water (actually I use almond milk), and though the batter isn’t necessarily thick, it comes out just fine when I cook it in my waffle iron! Next time I will cut out the added sweetener (I use honey) since I put honey on them afterward anyway. They taste great with peanut butter, fruit, and other toppings!
We just made these this morning, and they are a hit! I doubled the recipe, and after a little spilling trying to figure out the right way to pour the batter, made 9 pancakes in my Waring Professional Waffle Maker, using the included scoop for the amount of batter. I will admit that I made a small substitution, adding ground golden flax to make up about 1/2 cup of the oats, and the change was nice. These were filling and tasty. My 6-, 4-, and 2-year old loved them, as did my notoriously picky husband. I really appreciated that they weren’t too sweet, especially since in our house, it’s illegal not to use maple syrup on top! Thank you for the recipe!
★★★★★
¡These waffles are amazing! I was worried when I read some reviews that said the batter came out too runny, but I used 1 cup of buttermilk and had to add more water since it ended up being too thick. I was real careful to over process the oats, though. The flavor was incredible. I didn’t have two eggs, only one, so I used some banana as well. This is absolutely replacing my regular recipe.
I’m so glad you enjoyed these Samuel!! We’ve made similar substitutions in the past, and they always turn out wonderful!
I haven’t made these yet but they look and sound delicious. I use quite a bit of Oat Bran Flour that I already have and wonder if I could use this vs blending the whole oats? Seems like it would be the same result?
It might Janet – it’s worth a shot!
Wow, wow, wow! I recently was was forced to make a lot of dietary changes for a health condition, and when I saw this recipe met my guidelines, I was excited. I made them this morning and I am beyond thrilled! I like them much more than my traditional waffle recipe, and will be making them over and over again. You have made my day! Thank you!!!
I have rated the recipe 5 stars, but it honestly deserves at least 10.
★★★★★
You’re so kind Martha! I’m so glad you like these waffles, and that they fit your new dietary changes! ♥
This was amazing i added some grounded flaxseeds and buckwheat flour and a bit of bran so yummmy! great recipe thank you for this recipe. Highly recommended.

Thanks Maha!
Delicious! Easy to make! I halved the recipe! Thanks much!
★★★★★
You’re very welcome!
Great recipe. In case anybody wanted to know the waffles without maple syrup and molasses contain any where from 140-173 calories for one waffle
I love this recipe! I don’t have a waffle iron, but I learned that if I use half the fat I can make pancakes out of it. I make these almost every weekend with 3Tbsp coconut oil in place of the 6Tbsp butter.
This morning I used this batter to make Instant Pot pancake bites. It works out great. I’ll be making them this way through the heat of summer since making them in an IP means not standing over a hot stove.
Thanks for a great recipe. I definitely give this 5 stars.
★★★★★
What a great hack Cheri! Thanks so much for sharing this with us!
Epic fail. I put my blendtec on 10, and it turned into clay. I added liquid (2.5 cups total), until it was pourable. I poured it into the waffle iron, and when the green light came on for “ready”, it was goo in the middle. We had to scrape it out. I believe I did exactly what the recipe said, including rest periods., except for adding additional liquid. I’m glad others are successful with this, but I’m not going to try again. ☹️
I’m so sorry this didn’t work out for you Donna! We make this literally, twice a month MINIMUM and we’ve never had any issues!
I’ve not made this … yet. I have some cinnamon eggnog that I thought I’d try to use in this recipe. Other than lowering the sweetener, what other alterations would you recommend I make if I use some eggnog as the liquid.
Make sure to use the eggnog in place of the liquids not with them because it will get to watered down.
Thank you for your response. I’ll let you know how it turns out.
Can I use oat flour 1-1 substitute for oats?
Saw this recipe on Pinterest and it sounded interesting. I read the entire instructions and notes before I got started. One suggestion is on the recipe instead of giving a range for the water of 1 – 1 1/2 cups, just list 1 cup and let the notes determine if they need to add more or not. Those that premeasure 1 1/2 cups might have used too much water and got thinner batter. I blended everything on high and it came out great. My yield was 3 1/2 waffles. I used your guide and started with 3/4 cup not knowing what the rise would be during baking. It was pretty thin and really didn’t have any top pockets. Going to a full cup gave that thicker waffle with a nice airy or cake like look. Really depends on the model of iron you use. I also used just the molasses for the sweetener and a little different flavor enhancer. I like the idea of premixing the dry ingredients for later and being able to then proportionally adjust everything for larger batches.
★★★★★
Weve made these a few times before. My 21 month old loves helping! We discovered we forgot to put the butter in them well after we were all done eating them. Oops! lol! They still tasted great without!
★★★★★
This is, by far, the best gluten free waffle and arguably the best waffle I’ve ever had! The recipe works perfectly if you follow the directions exactly as written. I believe blending and resting times are key as you are working with oats which is completely different than wheat flour. I used the minimum amount of water and eliminated the molasses. The recipe comes together quickly, and premixing the dry ingredients would whittle it down even more. Putting some in the fridge for another breakfast so we’ll see how they are leftover. I got 5 waffles about 6” each from the recipe and they were VERY filling. I wanted to eat more than the one I could manage. My search is over, the job is done. I have my go to, clean eating waffle recipe after about 2 1/2 years of searching. Thank you so much. Happy woman, here.
So gratified that our recipe could fill your yummy waffle needs, Sandy!!
I tried this recipe this morning, it was sooo good fluffy and moist, thank you so much !
I am delighted to hear you enjoyed it, Tuka!
