Instructions
To commence the creation of these delightful Ragi, Wheat & Oat Waffles, start by preheating your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs with a hand beater until they become light and fluffy. Gradually add in the milk, sunflower oil, sugar, baking powder, salt, and vanilla extract, mixing gently just until the ingredients are well combined and smooth, ensuring no lumps remain.
Next, incorporate the whole wheat flour, ragi flour, and oats flour into the mixture. Stir thoroughly until the batter is completely smooth. Remember, a well-mixed batter will yield the best results for your waffles.
Once your batter is ready, it’s time to prepare the waffle iron. Grease the waffle iron plates lightly with oil to prevent sticking. Pour an appropriate amount of the batter onto the preheated waffle iron, ensuring you do not overfill, as the batter will spread. Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp. This usually takes about 4 to 5 minutes, but the exact timing may vary based on your specific waffle iron.
After your waffles are cooked to perfection, carefully remove them from the waffle iron and place them on a serving platter. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the waffle iron as necessary.
For serving, you can either drizzle the waffles generously with maple syrup for a classic touch or spread a layer of Nutella for an indulgent twist. These waffles pair beautifully with a fresh fruit salad or yogurt on the side, making them a versatile breakfast option.
For an even more satisfying meal, consider serving the Ragi, Wheat & Oat Waffles alongside a refreshing Banana Almond & Prunes Smoothie or a delicious Strawberry & Oats Breakfast Smoothie. These smoothies will not only complement the flavors of the waffles but also add a nutritional boost to your breakfast.
Moreover, these waffles make a fantastic addition to your children’s lunchbox, ensuring they have a nutritious and delicious meal to enjoy at school. You can even pack them with some fresh fruits and a pot of Fresh Strawberry Jam (or your favorite preserve) for dipping.
Conclusion
Whether you’re making them for breakfast, brunch, or as a fun snack, these Ragi, Wheat & Oat Waffles are sure to please everyone at the table. With their wholesome ingredients and versatile serving options, you can indulge in a tasty treat without compromising on nutrition. So gather your ingredients, fire up that waffle iron, and enjoy a delightful morning feast that celebrates the wonderful world of flavors!
