Delicious and fluffy oat flour waffles made with wholesome ingredients, perfect for a gluten-free breakfast or brunch. These waffles are easy to prepare, combining oat flour with baking powder, milk, eggs, and subtle sweetness from maple syrup, resulting in a naturally flavorful and satisfying meal.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cup oat flour
  • 2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cup milk of choice (dairy free or regular)
  • ¼ cup coconut oil or butter, melted
  • 2 eggs, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat Waffle Iron: Begin by preheating your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the oat flour, baking powder, and sea salt until well combined to distribute the leavening agent and salt evenly.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, melted coconut oil or butter, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and homogenous.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are acceptable.
  5. Cook Waffles: Lightly grease the waffle iron if necessary. Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron and cook according to your waffle iron’s instructions, usually about 4-6 minutes, until golden brown and crisp.
  6. Serve Warm: Carefully remove the waffles and serve immediately with your favorite toppings like fresh berries, yogurt, or additional maple syrup.

Notes

  • Make sure the eggs are at room temperature to achieve a lighter batter.
  • You can use any type of milk you prefer—dairy or dairy-free alternatives work well.
  • For extra crispiness, allow the waffles to cool on a wire rack instead of stacking them.
  • If you don’t have oat flour, you can make your own by blending rolled oats until fine.
  • Store leftover waffles in an airtight container and reheat in a toaster or oven for best texture.
