Make This Recipe
Ingredients
1 c. cottage cheese
1 c. eggnog
2 tbsp melted butter (can use coconut oil alternatively)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1.75 cups rolled oats
1 tbsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp sea salt
coconut oil (optional for coating the waffle iron)
Preparation
- In a blender combine the eggs, cottage cheese, eggnog, melted butter, vanilla, rolled oats, baking powder and sea salt and blend until smooth.
- Let the batter sit for at least 10 minutes, or up to overnight before cooking into waffles.
To Cook Waffles:
- Heat your waffle iron, add a touch of coconut oil to the waffle iron and pour in the batter (mine uses about 2/3 cup batter for each waffle – follow your waffle iron's directions).
- Cook until your waffle iron lights up as done (every waffle iron is different).
- Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Enjoy!
Recipe Tips:
You can freeze your cooked waffles for a quick breakfast in the weeks to come!
