Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup cottage cheese

2 large eggs

1/4 cup natural peanut butter

2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for a vegan alternative)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

1/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy, as needed for consistency)

Toppings: Sliced bananas, chopped nuts, additional peanut butter, or maple syrup

Instructions
 

Blend the Base: In a blender, combine the rolled oats, cottage cheese, eggs, peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon (if using). Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.

    Adjust Consistency: Check the batter. If it’s too thick, slowly add the milk until you reach a pourable yet thick consistency resembling traditional waffle batter.

      Preheat Waffle Iron: Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Lightly grease with non-stick spray or brush with a little oil to prevent sticking.

        Cook the Waffles: Pour an appropriate amount of batter into the preheated waffle iron (about 1/2 to 3/4 cup, depending on your waffle iron size). Close the lid and cook for 4-5 minutes or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy.

          Serve: Remove the waffles from the waffle iron and serve immediately. Top with sliced bananas, a drizzle of extra peanut butter, chopped nuts, or maple syrup.

            Store Leftovers: If you have any leftovers, allow the waffles to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to one month.
