These spelt waffles are sure to brighten up any morning! They have very little added sugar and really shine when you add some natural toppings such as unsweetened whipped cream, coconut cream, maple syrup, fresh fruit, coconut flakes, or chopped and toasted nuts.

Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients

1 ½ cups plain kefir or buttermilk full fat or low-fat
½ cup unsweetened oat or almond milk (or use all kefir as indicated in my original recipe)
¼ cup melted butter or oil such as canola or avocado
3 large eggs
2 cups sprouted spelt flour (or use 1 cup spelt and 1 cup oat or white whole wheat)
2 tablespoons sugar or use honey or maple syrup (and combine with liquid ingredients)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda

Equipment

waffle maker

Method

Preheat waffle iron.
In a medium bowl, combine kefir/buttermilk, oat milk, melted butter, and eggs.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Pour in the liquid ingredients and stir to combine.
Spray waffle maker with nonstick spray (or use butter) and ladle out the batter per waffle maker instructions. (If not sure, start with 1/4 or 1/3 cup of batter.) Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until waffle maker indicates waffle is done. Waffle should be golden brown.
Use a fork to remove the waffle. Serve immediately or transfer to a wire cookie rack so that they don't get soggy on the bottom. Enjoy with your favorite toppings!
