It’s the perfect way to have a sweet breakfast without all the calories, and with no fiber! This healthy blueberry waffle recipe is made flourless with oats and is going to tickle your taste buds so that you never want to buy the frozen ones ever again at the store!
These waffles are also sugar free made with unsweetened applesauce (love this as a healthy substitute to sugar), a little lemon juice, vanilla extract and of course, blueberries to sweeten the deal!
They’re perfect for a breakfast treat, snack and easy to meal prep and freeze for a rainy day or holiday.
Start by making oat flour. It’s easy to do with rolled oats! Measure and blend in a food processor or blender with all ingredients except the blueberries. When the batter is smooth, fold the blueberries in by hand.
I recommend using frozen wild blueberries for this batter that have been thawed prior to baking. I’ve found frozen do better in this recipe instead of fresh blueberries. I like the wild blueberries because they’re smaller which means the batter won’t break from the weight of the blubs!
Once your batter is ready, add half of it to a preheated waffle maker. I spray mine with avocado oil to prevent sticking. Note, I have a double waffle maker so if yours is smaller you will use a quarter of the batter.
This batter will be very thick and take slightly longer to bake than other waffle batters, but it will spread during baking and turn out golden brown with a little patience!
I also want to note that I do not like my waffles (or any food) very sweet. These waffles are sugar free so, if you like yours sweeter than you could add one or two tablespoons of real maple syrup to the batter. My weight loss clients find after working with me that they don’t need this though. 😉
Add the rolled oats, applesauce, milk, lemon juice, vanilla extract and baking powder to a food processor or blend. Blend 1-2 minutes until smooth then remove and manually fold the blueberries into the batter by hand. The batter will be thick.
Add half the batter to the waffle maker and bake 4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Note, I have a double waffle maker so if yours is smaller than you will use less batter ~1/2 cup.
Carefully remove the waffle from the waffle maker and set aside on a wire baking rack or plate. Repeat step 3 to cook the remaining batter.
Enjoy waffles immediately with 1-2 tablespoons of real maple syrup or drippy peanut butter. For meal prepping, cool completely then wrap in plastic wrap with foil over it and store in the refrigerator 5 days or in the freezer up to 60 days. Warm 30 seconds in the microwave!
These waffles are made with applesauce to make them added sugar free. I prefer my food to be lower in sugar and that is what I recommend for my weight loss clients. If you would sweeter waffles, you can add 1-2 tablespoons of real maple syrup to the batter for added sweetness.
