I love cooking with oats as they add a nice texture to finished products. These were made gluten free by using gluten free oats and a gluten free all-purpose flour blend. The food processor was used to process the dry ingredients and to incorporate the wet. It is a habit of mine to separate the eggs and whip the egg whites till stiff and then fold into the batter. These waffles are lightly crisp and were served topped with fresh strawberries and a light drizzle of pure maple syrup.

I doubled the cinnamon and added a bit of nutmeg,vanilla, and raisins. They were so crisp with just a hint of sweetness. DH thought they were a bit bland so next time I may add some applesauce or banana. They were perfect for me as is though!

Super recipe! The waffles are so light they almost float in your mouth! We loved the flavor of the cinnamon in the mix and my daughter said it made it smell like cinnamon heaven in the kitchen. I used a Belgium waffle maker and received 6 perfect waffles from this recipe. Served with just a smidgeon of butter on top and slices of oranges on the side. No need for anything else as the waffles have such a great flavor. Thanks for sharing this recipe Boomette in Photo Tag.
