Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 1 cup Oat flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 2 large Eggs
• 1.5 cups Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup Melted coconut oil
• 2 tablespoons Chia seeds

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, oat flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.

Step 3

In another bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil. Whisk until well combined.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients while stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Fold in the chia seeds gently, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Once the waffle iron is heated, lightly grease it with a little additional coconut oil if needed.

Step 7

Pour the recommended amount of batter onto the hot waffle iron (usually about 1/2 to 3/4 cup, depending on your appliance).

Step 8

Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes or according to your waffle iron's instructions.

Step 9

Carefully remove the waffle and transfer it to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 10

Serve the nut-free power waffles warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh fruits, maple syrup, or yogurt.
