Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 egg
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 cup chopped almonds
Instructions
- Soak oats: In a bowl, combine the rolled oats and almond milk. Stir well and cover, then place it in the refrigerator overnight to allow the oats to soak and soften.
- Prepare batter: In the morning, add almond flour, maple syrup, egg, baking powder, salt, vanilla extract, and cinnamon to the soaked oats. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
- Preheat waffle iron: Turn on your waffle iron and allow it to preheat fully according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure even cooking.
- Add almonds: Gently fold the chopped almonds into the batter to incorporate some crunch into the waffles.
- Cook waffles: Pour the batter carefully into the preheated waffle iron. Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through, usually about 4-6 minutes depending on your waffle maker.
- Serve: Remove the waffles and serve warm. Top with additional maple syrup, fresh fruits, or any toppings of your choice for a delicious breakfast or brunch.
Notes
- Soaking the oats overnight softens them and improves the texture of the waffles.
- You can substitute almond milk with any other plant-based milk or regular milk if preferred.
- For a vegan version, replace the egg with a flax egg (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal mixed with 3 tablespoons water).
- Chopped almonds add a nice crunch but can be omitted or substituted with other nuts as desired.
- These waffles freeze well; reheat in a toaster or oven for a quick breakfast.
