Light and Crispy Oatmeal Waffles


 
Light and crispy waffles that will nourish your body without weighing you down. These waffles come together in no time at all and with ingredients you always have on hand.

Recipe:
1.25 cup oats
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
pinch cinnamon
1 mashed banana
1 cup almond milk
1 flax egg

Turn on waffle iron to medium-low so it can heat up. Place about 1.25 cups oats in food processor and buzz them into coarse powder. This should yield about 1 cup buzzed oats. Mix together ground oats, cinnamon and baking powder. Add mashed banana, flax egg and milk and stir to combine. Start making waffles! Make sure to spray the waffle iron before pouring batter so they don't stick. Also make sure the iron is on medium-high setting so they crisp up. Enjoy! We usually eat waffles with black strap molasses for an extra boost of iron, but these are sweet and delicious on their own or an absolute dream with maple syrup!

Nutrition:
Oats are a wonderful way to start the day. They nourish your central nervous system and provide your body with more essential vitamins, minerals, fiber and phytonutrients than most other processed grains. Eating oatmeal also supplies you with energy, protein and healthy fat
