Ingredients

  • 1 cup sweet potato puree 200 g
  • 2 tbsp almond butter
  • 1.5 cups soy milk 360 ml
  • 3 cups oat flour 330 g
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • Pinch of cinnamon

Toppings

  • 4 tbsp blueberry compote
  • 4 tbsp almond butter
  • 1 sliced banana
  • 1 tbsp slivered almonds
  • Maple syrup to taste

Instructions

  • Put the sweet potato puree, almond butter, and soy milk into a blender. Blend until you get a creamy liquid mixture.
  • Sift in the oat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Blend to incorporate until no lumps are visible.
  • Set the batter aside for 10 minutes to allow it to thicken. Preheat your waffle iron.
  • Evenly spoon the mixture into the waffle iron (about 2-3 tbsp per waffle), making sure not to overfill it.
  • Close the lid and cook for 5-7 minutes, until no steam is coming out from the machine, then slowly open the lid. Cook a couple of minutes more if needed.
  • Let the waffle rest for a couple of minutes before removing it to avoid sticking. Repeat until there is no batter left.
  • Transfer the waffles onto serving plates, add toppings, and serve warm.

Notes

  • No waffle iron? No problem! Just make pumpkin pancakes out of your prepared batter instead!

  • Any leftover waffles store well in the fridge for at least 5 days.
