Description
Delicious and healthy waffles made with oats, cashews, and fresh raspberries.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 3/4 cup dry roasted and lightly salted cashews
- 1/3 cup melted coconut oil
- 3/4 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract (optional)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch (or arrowroot powder)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
- 1–1/2 cups fresh raspberries (6 ounces)
- 2 tablespoons flax seeds
- Toppings as desired
Instructions
- Preheat the waffle iron.
- Add everything in the order listed to a high-powered blender. Blend until completely smooth, about 90–120 seconds. Scrape sides and blend longer if needed. The batter is ready when there aren’t any chunks of oats or cashews.
- If your waffle iron or pan has a nonstick surface, don’t use cooking spray. If it doesn’t have a nonstick surface, grease with cooking spray. Add 1/3 cup of batter from the blender into each cavity. Use all the batter—scraping it out with a spatula if needed.
- Most waffle irons will signal to let you know the waffle is done. If your waffle maker doesn’t have that feature, watch for the steam to stop seeping out the sides. Never open your iron until the steam has stopped!
- Right out of the waffle iron, place each waffle on a wire cooling rack.
- Serve waffles as is or with a drizzle of syrup, a dollop of whipped cream, and/or fresh fruit (like bananas or strawberries).
- Optional Raspberry Smash: Prepare while waffles are cooking. In a small bowl, mash the raspberries with a fork. Add in the flaxseeds and mix through. Serve atop waffles with a drizzle of syrup.

- If you won’t be eating waffles right away and want to keep waffles warm, see note 5.
