Here's a recipe that all will love: tasty gluten-free waffles that are sure to brighten your morning and enlighten your taste buds!
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
1/4 cup walnuts, almonds, or pecans
1 Tbs honey, maple syrup, or other sweetener (optional)
1 teaspoon salt (optional)
1 ripe banana
2 + 1/2 cups water (or more until desired batter-like consistency is reached)
1 cup cooked & drained garbanzo beans
Directions:
In blender, combine 1/2 cup water, nuts, honey, salt, garbanzo beans, and banana and blend until smooth. Add oats and remaining 2 cups of water and blend again until smooth. Let batter sit for a few minutes and then evaluate batter consistency. If needed (too thick) add more water and blend again. Next pour batter into preheated waffle grill ~ if using a new grill do not oil! The non-stick coating will adequately prevent sticking. If grill is greased it will ever-after require re-greasing. If this is the case, you may still be able to prevent sticking by sprinkling some sesame seeds on the grill before adding the batter and then sprinkling sesame seeds on top of waffle (batter) before closing the lid. Observing these two directions makes for a much healthier waffle (drastically reduces acrylamide production - a cancer causing agent produced by frying). Cook until waffle is browned.
