Instructions

Blend and Cook Waffles

Start by heating up your waffle iron so it’s ready to go. In a blender, toss together the eggs, spinach, oats, cottage cheese, applesauce, chia seeds, and baking powder. Blend everything until it’s nice and smooth – this might take about five minutes. Once your waffle iron is hot, pour in some of the batter, depending on the size of your iron, and cook each waffle until they turn golden brown and the steam slows down, which usually takes around five minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter, and enjoy your green-packed waffles!

Storage Tips

Store leftover waffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. To reheat, pop them in a toaster or oven to keep them crispy. You can also freeze them for longer storage and toast directly from frozen.
