How to make Cottage Cheese and Yogurt Waffles
Begin with preheating the waffle iron so it’s hot and ready when the batter is done.
Next, make the batter base. In a blender or food processor, add cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, whole eggs, egg whites and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Then, incorporate the dry ingredients. Add oat flour, almond flour, baking powder, salt, and chia seeds into the blended mixture. Mix again until the batter becomes slightly thick yet pourable.
After that, cook the waffles. Lightly grease the waffle iron if needed. Spoon about 1/3 cup of batter into the preheated waffle iron for each waffle, spreading slightly to cover. Cook for about 4 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and fully set. Finally, serve.
Transfer the waffles to a plate and enjoy them warm with fresh berries, a dollop of nut butter, or a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
