OMEGA 3 Waffles


If you have Kellogg's Eggo Buttermilk Waffles in your freezer...throw them out and replace with these!

Ingredients: ENRICHED FLOUR (WHEAT FLOUR, NIACIN, REDUCED IRON, THIAMIN MONONITRATE [VITAMIN B1], RIBOFLAVIN [VITAMIN B2], FOLIC ACID), WATER, VEGETABLE OIL (SOYBEAN AND PALM OIL), EGGS, LEAVENING (BAKING SODA, SODIUM ALUMINUM PHOSPHATE, MONOCALCIUM PHOSPHATE), SUGAR, CONTAINS TWO PERCENT OR LESS OF CALCIUM CARBONATE, SALT, BUTTERMILK, SOY LECITHIN, VITAMIN A PALMITATE, REDUCED IRON, NIACINAMIDE, VITAMIN B12, PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE (VITAMIN B6), THIAMIN HYDROCHLORIDE (VITAMIN B1), RIBOFLAVIN (VITAMIN B2).




1 cup fresh ground flax meal
4 eggs
1/4 cup coconut oil or butter
1/2 cup of unsweetened almond milk
3 TBS cream cheese (or coconut cream if dairy allergy)
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp stevia glycerite (or 3 tsp of  Swerve)
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup water (or more almond milk)

In a large bowl mix the flax meal and baking powder. In a small pan, melt butter and cream cheese over a low flame. In a small bowl, pour in mixer and whisk in eggs, and milk. Add the cinnamon and Stevia, whisking well. Add wet to dry, and add water to thin the batter (I added roughly a quarter cup). Using a soup ladle, scoop about 2-3 T of the mixture into your waffle iron. Serve with Nature's Hollow Syrup, click HERE to find.

These turned out way better than expected! Nice and crispy. I made a batch of these and froze them to put in the toaster for easy breakfasts. Make sure your waffle iron is HOT HOT HOT before you make the first one. Makes 8 servings.
