Chocolate Blueberry Oat Waffles
This whole food plant-based gluten-free waffle mix is as tasty as it is quick. It’s a perfect blast of chocolate goodness with delicious berries to start your day. Nut allergy? See the tips below - I got you covered. This makes about 4 regular sized waffles.
- 1 cup Rolled Oats
- 1 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
- 1 Banana (ripe)
- 1/2 tbsp Cocoa Powder
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract (natural)
- 1 tbsp Ground Flax
- 1 tbsp Chia Seeds
- 1 cup Blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 tbsp Maple Syrup
- 1 tbsp Almond Butter (natural)
- 1/2 tbsp Hemp Seeds
Turn your waffle iron on and let it heat up while you make your mix.
Grease it if you need to. You know your machine better than I do.
In a high speed blender combine your oats, non-dairy milk, vanilla, cocoa powder, and banana into a blender. If you’re out of non-dairy milk no sweat - water will work in a pinch.
Crank your blender till it’s creamy then pour it into a small mixing bowl. Add the flax and chia and stir it around. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes to thicken.
While that’s happening take your frozen blueberries and microwave them for 1-2 minutes. Fresh won’t work as well. They’re ready when they’ve thawed and there’s some juice at the bottom of the bowl. Add in your nut butter and maple and stir it all around.
Once your batter is ready scoop it into the waffle iron a 1/2 cup at a time. It takes about 4-5 minutes a waffle. Read a book or make some coffee or tea. Stretch. Do something.
When they’re ready top with your blueberry mix and sprinkle the hemp seeds over and smash them into your mouth.
