Ingredients
Scale
Waffle Batter
- 2 cups rolled oats (or quick oats)
- 2 ripe bananas
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat Waffle Iron: Set your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions, allowing it to fully heat up before cooking.
- Blend Ingredients: In a high-speed blender, combine the rolled oats, ripe bananas, eggs, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Blend until the batter is smooth and well combined.
- Grease Waffle Iron: Lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick spray or a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.
- Cook Waffles: Pour the batter onto the center of the preheated waffle iron. Avoid overfilling. Close the iron and cook according to the manufacturer’s instructions until waffles are golden brown and crisp, usually about 4-6 minutes.
- Serve: Remove waffles carefully and serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, or yogurt.
Notes
- Using ripe bananas ensures natural sweetness and moisture.
- Rolled oats create a thicker batter; quick oats can be used for a lighter texture.
- Make sure the waffle iron is hot enough to cook the waffles thoroughly and get a crispy outside.
- These waffles are gluten-free if you use certified gluten-free oats.
- Leftover waffles can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated in a toaster or oven for best results.
