These cozy spelt waffles start with toasted oats that you'll blend into flour for a wonderfully nutty flavor, then mix with spelt flour and other ingredients to create a thick batter. After a 30-minute rest (or even overnight for next-day freshness), you'll cook them until golden brown — the trickiest part is getting the batter consistency just right, so don't hesitate to add a splash of milk if needed.

Toast the oats
Spread the oats on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and toast in the oven at 170°C for 15 minutes. This gives them a richer, slightly nutty flavor. As they bake, they'll release a lovely aroma and turn a bit darker.

Make the batter base
Take the oats out of the oven and let them cool slightly. Tip them into a blender and blend into a fine flour. Mix the oat flour together with the spelt flour, then add the baking powder, sugar, and salt, stirring well. Add the remaining wet ingredients.

A thick batter
Mix everything together with a large whisk until you get a thick batter. I found mine a bit too thick, so I added a splash more oat milk to loosen it up.
