Berry Delicious Gluten-Free Oat Flour Waffles with Maple, Cinnamon, Banana, and Blueberry Syrup

I guess this month is my breakfast and brunch month. To commemorate my breakfast/brunch addiction I have continued my adventure by making WAFFLES or WOWffles because WOW (insert cheesy statement here).

You need a waffle maker or you can make your own (I do not know how, sorry). Many years ago my boyfriend, Paul, received a house-warming gift that has brought joy to our lives. One of his engineering friends, a kid at heart, won a bunch of tickets at Dave and Busters and instead of cashing for the big stuffed Yoda animal, he chooses a waffle maker. This selfless man gifted this beautiful waffle maker and since then I have become a lover of waffles.

Here is the recipe adapted by Girl Makes Food






Recipe for BERRY Delicious Gluten-Free Oat Flour Waffles with Maple, Cinnamon, Banana, and Blueberry Syrup

First turn on to heat your waffle maker, it may take 5 minutes.

  2 cups Rolled Oats (throw it in the food processor until it looks like flour) ~ 30 seconds - 1 minute
  1 cup of milk (I used almond milk)
  4 Large Strawberries (diced or chopped)
  2 tablespoons Pure Maple Syrup
  1/2 teaspoon salt
  1 tablespoon of Baking Powder
  2 eggs (I used egg whites)
  2 tablespoons of Coconut Oil (or oil of choice)

Directions for Waffles:

Mix/whisk all the waffle ingredients EXCEPT the strawberries together until it is close to uniform. Fold in the strawberries. Add waffle batter onto the waffle maker (depending on the kind of maker you have, the cook time may be different). 

Syrup

Heat a non-stick pan on med-low heat and gradually heat all the ingredients. Allow the blueberries to soften to release its delicious juices. After you are done heating the syrup just pour however much you like over the waffles. 

  1 tablespoon butter or a butter alternative 
  3/4 - 1 cup Blueberries
  1 Banana
  1/8-1/4 cup Maple Syrup (you can control how much you would like, I added more as I went on to accommodate the waffle load)


  1 teaspoon of Cinnamon (or more if you love cinnamon like I do!)
