This waffle recipe is the best I’ve tasted. I think it’s the oats that make all the difference. They are light, crunchy and so delicious.

3/4 Cup rolled oats

3 Tblsp butter diced

1 1/4 Cups plain flour

1 Tblsp caster sugar

1 1/2 teasp baking powder

1/2 teasp bicarb soda

2 eggs

1 Cup buttermilk or 3/4 Cup yoghurt mixed with 4 Tablsp of milk

METHOD

In a medium saucepan combine oats with 1 1/4 cups of water. Bring to simmer stirring for 3 minutes. Remove and stir in butter.

Mix flour, sugar, bicarb and baking powder in a bowl.

Mix 2 eggs with the buttermilk and add to the porridge. Then stir the porridge mixture into the dry ingredients.

It is important not to overbeat.

Add 3/4 cup to the waffle iron.
