Let Go My Waffles

Where our morning runners at?! Don’t miss that opportunity to refuel when you get home with something warm & delicious, and it might provide some solid nutrition as well. Careful or someone might steal one of these bad boys…

Ingredients

• 1 ripe banana, peeled
• 1 cup oats, quick or old fashioned
• 2 Tbsp nut butter
• 1 egg
• 1/4 cup milk or milk alternative
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp baking powder
• Optional: sprinkles, chocolate chips

Directions

1. Place all ingredients in a blender. Blend it up.
2. Heat waffle iron. Spray with nonstick spray.
3. Pour waffle batter into the waffle iron and cook until done. <highly recommend a small 5″ waffle maker>
4. Eat warm or place on a cooling rack until room temperature and freeze in a single layer or with parchment paper between waffles in a storage container. To reheat: pop into the toaster like any freezer waffle.

Pro tip: double this recipe if you’re feeding a crew.
