Blackberry oat waffles

These blackberry oat waffles are easy to make. They are high in fibre, so healthier than the average waffles. They are dairy-free and, using appropriate oats, can easily be gluten-free too. For a vegan version use flax-eggs!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup oat
  • ½ cup blackberries
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ cup ground almond
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 2 eggs
  • For the compote:
  • 3 Tbsp muscovado sugar
  • 1.5 cup blackberries
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Put the oats, blackberries, eggs, vanilla, almond milk, ground almonds and baking powder in a blender. Pulse until you get a thick but pourable mixture. Add more almond milk if the mixture is too thick.
  2. Heat your waffle maker.
  3. Spoon some batter into the waffle maker, spreading it out evenly. Close the top and cook for 3-5 minutes (depending on your machine).
  4. When the waffle is golden, move to a plate and make more waffles using up the batter. You should get about 4 waffles, depending on your machine.
  5. Meanwhile, make the compote. Put the blackberries into a small pan, then add the sugar and vanilla extract. Cook for about 5 minutes until the liquid becomes syrupy (but it should not turn into a jam!)
  6. Serve the waffles with the compote.
