Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese 2% also works well.
  • 2 large eggs

  • 2 tbsp maple syrup Can substitute with honey or other sweeteners.

  • 1/4 tsp salt

Equipment

  • 1 Blender
  • 1 Waffle Iron

Method
 

  1. Combine cottage cheese, eggs, rolled oats, baking powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt in a blender. Blend on high for 30-60 seconds until the batter is completely smooth.

  4. Carefully remove the waffle and serve immediately with your favorite toppings. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Notes

For Crispier Waffles: Ensure your waffle iron is fully preheated before adding batter.
Storage: Store cooled waffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
Reheating: Reheat in a toaster or toaster oven for the best texture.
