Ingredients
Waffle Batter
- 1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional, for a sweet version
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle maker until it reaches full heat.
- Add cottage cheese, oats, eggs, baking powder, vanilla, and salt to a blender.
- Blend until smooth and thick. The batter should be pourable but not runny.
- Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or butter.
- Pour about half a cup of batter onto the hot surface.
- Cook for 3–4 minutes, or until the edges are golden and steam subsides.
- Remove carefully and let rest for 1 minute before serving.
- Tip: For crispier waffles, extend the cooking time by 30 seconds and avoid overfilling the waffle iron.
Notes
These waffles are excellent for meal prep — refrigerate for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in a toaster or air fryer for a crispy texture. Enjoy them sweet with fruit and maple syrup or savory with eggs and avocado.
