Paleo-ish Blueberry Oatmeal Waffles

Deliciously easy-to-make and freezable waffles that are gluten-, egg-, dairy-, nut-, and soy-free! They also double as moist, yet interestingly crispy pancakes for those who do not have a waffle iron.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup Arrowroot starch
  • 1/4 cup Oat flour
  • 2 tbsp Coconut flour
  • 1/2 tsp Xantham gum
  • 1 scoop Unflavoured protein powder (optional)
  • 1 tbsp Baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 3 tbsp Brown sugar (you can also use Coconut sugar, but I would use 4 tbsp)
  • 1 cup Oats
  • 3 tbsp Lard
  • 2 tbsp Coconut oil
  • 1 1/2 cup Coconut (or almond) milk
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Frozen blueberries

Instructions

  1. Melt lard and coconut oil together on the stove. Let cool.
  2. While the lard and coconut oil are melting, sift the flours, xantham gum, protein powder (if you’re adding it), baking powder, salt, and cinnamon together into a mixing bowl.
  3. Add the sugar and the oats, and whisk dry ingredients together until uniform.
  4. Gently whisk the lard/coconut oil mixture, vanilla, and coconut milk to the dry mixture.
  5. Gently whisk in the blueberries (they will bleed a bit into the batter).
  6. Let the batter sit for 5-10 mins to thicken.
  7. While batter is thickening, pull out your waffle iron and set it up with a baking sheet underneath. Plug it in to start warming up. (If you’re making pancakes, pull out your cast iron skillet/griddle, or frying pan. Add some coconut or canola oil to the pan, and set it on medium-low heat to start warming up.)
  8. Lightly grease your waffle iron (I use spray oil, but you can brush it on/use a paper towel)
  9. Add 1/3 cup of batter to each side of your waffle iron (or frying pan), and let the iron do the rest.
  10. Top waffles with maple syrup and/or your favourite fruit.
  11. When the remaining waffles have cooled place them in a Ziploc bag and freeze them. They last for a month in the freezer…if you can hold off that long!
