Oat Flour Waffles

July 20, 2023 by Gina +

One of the most requested breakfast foods from my little ones is waffles. Since we make them quite often I feel the need to not only make them delicious but also healthy. Oats are a great source of fiber, antioxidants, and vitamins. I also use cottage cheese for a protein boost. If that’s not your thing, you can also add Greek yogurt.

When I was a kid, breakfast was mostly cereal or some kind of toast and fruit. With 4 kids, it was a busy household. Covience was crucial. I wish I could send this recipe back in time to my mama. Waffles might not seem like a quick breakfast, but the batter comes together quickly and you can easily big batch these. They make a great snack too!

Ingredients needed for the Waffles

  • Eggs – 5 in total
  • Oats – I use old-fashioned rolled oats
  • Cottage cheese
  • Maple syrup
  • Vanilla extract

How to make the Waffles

  • Place everything into a large blender. Blend until smooth
  • Warm a waffle iron and spray with cooking oil.
  • Place about 1/4 cup of batter into the center (depending on the size of the waffle iron). Cook until done.
  • Add whatever toppings you like.
  • Place leftovers wrapped in the fridge and reheat when ready to enjoy

One of my favorite ways to eat summer tomatoes ๐Ÿ… One of my favorite ways to eat summer tomatoes ๐Ÿ…

Blistered cherry tomatoes, creamy white beans, cottage cheese and plenty of crusty sourdough. Itโ€™s simple, hearty, satisfying and has plenty of protein without feeling like a โ€œhigh-proteinโ€ meal.

Hereโ€™s how I make it:

A big handful of cherry tomatoes
1 can white beans, drained and rinsed
Olive oil
Salt + pepper
Squeeze of fresh lemon
Good Culture cottage cheese @good_culture 
Toasted sourdough for serving

Heat a good drizzle of olive oil in a skillet and add the cherry tomatoes. Let them cook until blistered and starting to burst, then give them a light mash.

Add the white beans, season really well with salt and pepper and finish with a squeeze of lemon. Let everything warm together for a few minutes.

Spoon into a bowl, add plenty of cottage cheese on top and serve with toasted or crusty sourdough for scooping.

So simple. SO good.
Save this one for tomato season. ๐Ÿ…๐Ÿค
