Oat and Almond Waffles

What's for brinner? Waffles, of course. 

You might be wondering, what is brinner? Well, brinner is breakfast for dinner. You know, like how brunch is breakfast and lunch. We first heard of "brinner" several years ago on a little show called "Scrubs." Since then, my husband and I have made it a point to have "brinner" on a regular basis. But you just can't have any simple brinner like cold cereal or danishes. No, it has be to substantial - a full meal. While we love pancakes, sometimes you really want a waffle instead. Waffles are crispier versions of pancakes and this recipe makes them even heartier. Serve with fresh berries, maple syrup (the real stuff), and bacon (of course) and you have a delicious meal. Breakfast for dinner. Brinner. 

These waffles are full of whole grains and are incredibly filling. One waffle is quite enough for each person. 

Oat and Almond Waffles
Makes 4 standard size waffles
  • 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 2/3 cup sliced almonds
  • 1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour (white whole wheat flour works well, too)
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 ounces butter, melted

Preheat the waffle iron according to manufacturer instructions. 

In a food processor, pulse together the oats and almonds until coarsely ground (not powder fine, but a little more coarse than that). Place oat mixture in a mixing bowl. Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Stir to combine. In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and butter. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until combined. 

Pour about a 1/3 cup (depending on the size of your waffle iron) in the center of the preheated iron and press the lid down. Cook waffles according the iron's manufacturer's instructions. 

Serve with fresh berries, maple syrup, and anything else you desire. We love bacon or sausage with our waffles.
