Savory Waffles (with veggies)
These cheesy savory waffles are packed with protein and vegetables and made right in the blender for an easy, delicious meal or snack.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup Greek yogurt (can use full fat or low fat)
- 1/3 - 1/2 cup milk (start with 1/3 cup and add more at the end if needed)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup (100g) rolled oats
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, (see note)
Optional
- 3/4 cup finely chopped vegetables or 2 handfuls of baby spinach (optional)
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients except the vegetables into the blender. Blend until smooth. Note, if you're using baby spinach you can blend it in.
- Stir in the finely chopped vegetables.
- Preheat and lightly grease your waffle maker. If at this point the batter is too thick to easily scoop or pour, stir in additional milk, a little at a time.
- Add the appropriate amount of batter for your waffle maker and cook until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Serve. Enjoy warm with your favorite toppings or allow to cool completely before storing for later.
Notes
- Blending the cheese right into the batter creates a moist, almost soufflé-like center with an evenly golden exterior. But if you prefer little pockets of melty cheese throughout, feel free to stir it in with the veggies instead!
