Cathy's Oatmeal Waffles Without Gluten

Ingredients

• cooking spray
• 1 ½ cups gluten-free rolled oats
• ¾ cup almond milk
• 1 egg, at room temperature, separated
• 3 tablespoons melted butter
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder

Directions

Gently heat up your waffle iron and giving it a quick spray with some cooking spray so the waffles don’t stick. In a big bowl, mix the oats with the almond milk until well combined. In a smaller bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and melted butter, then pour that into the oat mixture and stir it all up. Next, take the egg white and beat it until it holds stiff peaks—this will make your waffles nice and fluffy. Sprinkle the brown sugar and baking powder into the oat mix, then gently fold in the beaten egg white, being careful not to deflate it. Scoop about half a cup of batter onto your hot waffle iron, spreading it out evenly, then close the lid and cook until the steam stops, which usually takes around five minutes. Keep going with the rest of the batter until you’ve made all your waffles, and enjoy!
