These Cottage Cheese Waffles are a wholesome and delicious breakfast option, combining the creamy richness of cottage cheese with the nutty texture of whole wheat flour. Soft on the inside and perfectly golden on the outside, they are quick to prepare and packed with protein and fiber. Ideal for a healthy start to the day, served warm with fresh cottage cheese and your favorite toppings.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup small curd cottage cheese (lowfat is fine)
  • 3 large eggs
  • ⅓ cup milk
  • 3 tablespoons avocado oil (or mild olive oil)
  • ½ tablespoon vanilla extract
  • ⅔ cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat waffle iron: Begin by preheating your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure it is hot and ready to cook the waffles evenly.
  2. Blend the batter: In a blender, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, milk, oil, vanilla extract, whole wheat flour, baking powder, and ground cinnamon. Blend until the mixture is smooth but avoid over-blending to maintain some texture.
  3. Cook the waffles: Pour about 1/3 cup of batter onto the hot waffle iron. Cook for approximately 5-6 minutes or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, adjusting time based on your waffle iron’s guidance.
  4. Serve: Remove the waffles carefully and serve them warm. Top with fresh cottage cheese and your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, honey, or nuts for added flavor and texture.

Notes

  • You can substitute avocado oil with mild olive oil for a similar healthy fat source.
  • Do not over-blend the batter; some small curds of cottage cheese add a nice texture to the waffles.
  • Ensure your waffle iron is well-preheated for optimal crispiness.
  • Serving these waffles with fresh fruit or a drizzle of maple syrup complements their subtle sweetness.
  • Leftover waffles can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated in a toaster or oven for best results.
