I definitely appreciate the added protein, but it makes them quite rubbery, to the point they even get hard to cut at times after they start cooling a bit. This recipe definitely needs more flavor for me too, at least using honey, but the protein content is absolutely perfect. With two waffles and my usual fruit and PB toppings, I'm good until lunch, when I'm usually starving. I will play with adding more fat and making some other changes for tenderness. I say add a TB or vanilla for a 1.5x recipe. I used banana rather than applesauce, so I don't know how that changed things. I really appreciate this high protein recipe option. Protein level here is on point!
Hi Sasha, I love waffles! I made some of your homemade jam today, so I think I will need to make some of these to put the Jam on. As ever, TFS and have a great week 👍❤
Hi there Hazel, that's great news, homemade jam is one of the best things ever, and you're right making waffles is the next logical step, so happy waffling, hope you'll enjoy it. Take care, have a lovely week!
My brother lives in Croatia. I sent there dor the first time in February, and got excited when I saw you bring out the SPAR-brand yogurt. I also bought that same brand of Ajvar while I was there. It was delicious. Anyway. I really wanna try this recipe out!
I came here (again) to comment (for the third time) that these waffles are just perfect. I used cane sugar instead of syrup (since i don't have much syrup at home right now), in the batter and it was still good. In fact, im eating some with no syrup or anything right now! Very lightly sweet, just enough :)
Just made these for my 17 year old who's into the gym stuff these days, and an extremely picky eater, according to him they where really nice. I made the rest for myself and they actually are really good.
You're totally ON IT Sasha! The different ways you prepared the yummy Waffles is totally WONDERFUL! Hmm....we could also make them savory, omitting the applesauce and I bet they'd make a great Waffle Burger?😂Thanksfor sharing, and greetings👋from Querétaro, Mexico.🧇
Hi there! Sure, that would be awesome, making a waffle burger, and you actually don't have to replace the applesauce, these are not too sweet at all, maybe lower the maple syrup in half, will do some more savory waffle testing for sure. Take care, greetings to Mexico!
This recipe sounds wonderful - except the cornstarch. I avoid any corn products in my diet as most corn is genetically modified. I will swap out with an alternative starch!!!
Never use cooking spray to lubricate your waffle iron. Use oil or butter. The propellants and cooking spray will actually start to erode the nonstick surface
Hello Sasha 😊 love watching your videos. I was wanting to ask you how I can make the oat flour? Like what the best method is. If you don't have a video on how you make your oat flour, can you make one possibly?
Hi there! Well, most of the time I use a coffee grinder to process my rollod oats and turn into a flour, but you can use any blender or food processor to do that. Yeah, I was thinking about making a short video about that.
@HowToCookSmarter I use a small coffee grinder too. It works better than my food processor or blender, especially if I only want to make a small batch.
Do you think that using bananas instead of applesauce could work? I don't have it available to buy and making it by myself will take some time and being honest for next weeks i won't have it lol
I have to avoid processed carbs, so no white flour and sugar, even some syrups. Can I use 10% fat greek yoghurt? Have you tried date syrup? If so, how much would you say?
How many grams of protein in each waffle? grams of sugar in each waffle? Can honey be used to replace maple syrup? It would be helpful if you included the protein and sugar totals in your recipes.
Hi! Yeah, I could do that, this Greek yogurt I mention in the video is pretty much like any other thick yogurt you can find in your market, but it also can be strained before adding to the batter.
