I got this recipe online. It is copyrighted, so here is the link to her recipe website: SueGregg Cookbook.
I make these waffles all the time. The kids love them. Although the directions are long and wordy, these waffles whip up really fast. I usually double the recipe and I make it with whole oats and white winter wheat kernels.
AMOUNT: 3 - 4 Servings ( 8--6" pancakes or 3 to 4--7" waffles )
1. Place in blender; blend at highest speed 3 minutes (less in a Vita-Mix or Bosch), while adding enough liquid to maintain a vortex:
1 cup buttermilk or yogurt thinned with water to same consistency or 1 1/4+ cups for waffles--a thinner batter is best (Non-dairy allergy alternatives: rice, coconut, almond milk, apple juice or apple sauce + 1 Tbsp. vinegar)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional for flavor, omit with buckwheat)
1/2 cup uncooked rolled oats or whole oats or other grain
1/2 cup buckwheat, brown rice, corn, millet, or other grain
These are raw whole uncooked grains, not flour! We urge you to experiment with millet, barley, spelt, and Kamut® grain for varied tastes and textures. Avoid bothersome allergies. For those who are gluten intolerant try the gluten free grains: brown rice, corn, and millet.
2. Cover blender and let stand at room temperature several hours or overnight for improved nutrition. Optional but recommended. (I have never done this and they are fine.)
3. Preheat griddle on medium-high (until water drops sizzle on surface), or waffle iron at highest temperature.
4. Just before baking, add and reblend for 1 to 3 or more minutes until smooth:
1 egg (or alternative)
1 tablespoon flax seed (Optional for added nutritional value)
additional liquid (as needed to keep batter churning)
5. Blend in thoroughly, but briefly, "sifting" these through a small strainer (assist with rubber spatula, if needed):
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste (Believe it or not, a little salt enhances a sense of sweetness in whole grain baking It overcomes the "flat" taste feeling.)
1 teaspoon baking powder
Technique tip: If you can successfully drop the soda & salt into the spinning blades at the bottom of the vortex, you can omit sifting.
6. Bake on hot griddle or in waffle iron (3 to 5 minutes until crisp), lightly sprayed with non-stick olive oil spray as needed.
