Good morning! I have a BIG announcement today!! ;)
I ate WAFFLES for breakfast!!!!
I know, you are all shocked and surprised! LOL! j/k! I'M shocked and surprised! After eating low carb for YEARS, this Trim Healthy Mama way of eating is amazing! I LOVE being able to eat carbs AND lose weight! So, without further ado, here is the recipe!
E Waffles - this recipe made 4 waffles for me!
1/2 cup dry old fashioned oats
1/2 cup low fat cottage cheese
1/2 cup egg whites (I use Great Value brand in a carton)
dash or 2 of salt
2 tsp Truvia
2 shakes NuNaturals Stevia (small holes)
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp baking soda (I use aluminum-free)
I started by pulling out the nut/seed blade for my Magic Bullet and giving the oats a spin. It made oat flour and made sure we didn't get big chunks of oats in our waffles! (but if chunky waffles are your thing, go right ahead and leave them whole!) :P
Then I blended everything in my food processor and it looked just like regular waffle mix! If your mixture seems a little thick, add some water.....but only a little at a time! (don't ask how I know this!)I would like to add, since there is NO oil in this recipe, you will need to spray your waffle maker EVERY TIME you make a waffle! Just a little squirt will do, but it is necessary! Trust me! ;) (don't ask how I know this either!)
Now for the "syrup"
4 oz of low fat cream cheese
between 1/8-1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
2 shakes NuNaturals Stevia (small holes)
1/4 tsp vanilla
maple flavoring (I used some sugar free maple syrup)
I blended all of that in my Magic Bullet, adjusting the almond milk until I had a good syrupy consistency! I warmed up 1/2 cup of frozen blueberries and mixed in about 2T of the syrup and poured it all over my waffles! YUMM-O!!!
I'm so thankful that God guided my path toward this new, healthy way of eating! It's been a wonderful, waffle-y blessing!!
Happy Thursday!!
