Lemon and Blueberry Waffles - Pinch of Nom Slimming Recipes

For the full list of ingredients and comprehensive instructions, please see the recipe card at the end of this post. Before you scroll, there’s important stuff to know in the blurb!

Since we posted our first recipe for Baked Oats we’ve come to realise just how many of you enjoy our oat-based breakfast recipes. One thing we haven’t tried, up until now, is oat waffles.

Looking at our Facebook group, it sounded like a lot of our community was crying out for a slimming friendly waffle recipe, so we created these fruity Lemon and Blueberry Waffles.

You can use a waffle maker for these Lemon and Blueberry Waffles if you have one, but we just used one of these waffle moulds from Amazon.

Our sweetener of choice is Sukrin 1 which is a natural, granulated sweetener (just like sugar) that has none of that horrible, artificial taste.

That being said, you don’t have to use Sukrin – there are lots of other high quality, granulated sweeteners available from the supermarket including Canderel Sugarly and Natvia.

If you’re using powdered sweetener, then please check how it compares to sugar. In some cases you’ll need to use less, as powdered sweeteners can weigh less.

Could you use a waffle maker to cook this recipe

Reply

    HollyMonday 6th June 2022

    Hi Simon, yes you can use a waffle maker. Preheat and spray with a little low calorie cooking spray before pouring in the waffle batter. Seal your waffle maker and cook for 5-6 minutes or until the waffle is crispy and golden brown around the edges. Hope that helps!

I’ve done these twice now and I think I’ve got the hang of it! We have huge eggs, so last time it was too runny. This time I used two large eggs, the same amount of Yoghurt, and 80g of oats blended into flour. These were great in the waffle maker using spray oil for 7-8 minutes.

This made about 3.5 waffles and I worked out the calories as 597 for all 4 of them. (they were fine overnight in the fridge too)

    Hi Olive, thanks for telling us about your experience of making this recipe. It does sound like your eggs were too big. We use average sized eggs unless stated otherwise. So glad you were able to adapt this recipe to work with the eggs you had.

I tried these in a waffle making machine. Disaster, wouldn’t recommend doing them in a machine. Completely fell apart and although the machine is new and I used fry light, totally stuck to the machine.
Will have to try some moulds!

Hi Lesley,

Yes they are. We have a lot of recipes that were written before the changes, and we are working through them to make any necessary. We have around 250 – 300 recipes on the site so it may take some time to get them all amended
