Ingredients:

• 1 cup    :: Leftover or 1 full serving of cold cooked FLAMING OATS® (any flavor)
• ½ tsp   :: Extra virgin olive oil (optional)

Instructions:

1. Heat it up: Preheat waffle iron. Add extra virgin olive oil if needed.
2. Waffle it: Add 2-3 heaping spoonfuls of FLAMING OATS to waffle iron, press down hard (cover with a dish towel while pressing to avoid steam hitting your hand) until waffle iron is completely closed.
3. Cook it: Depending on your waffle iron, cook for about 7-10 minutes until waffle is crispy on the outside, tender on the inside.
4. Serve: Add waffles to a plate and enjoy immediately. For even more delight add to a bed of fresh dressed organic microgreens and a dollop of vegan sour cream.

These quick and easy savory waffles are perfect for when you need a fast nutritious meal packed with plant protein, vitamins, and minerals with minimal effort. Plus, it’s a great way to reduce food waste while enjoying a new, comforting dish!

Got FAQ?

1) Can I make savory waffles with any FLAMING OATS® flavor?

Yes—any flavor works. Spicy, mild, herby, “cheezy”… they all turn into crispy, savory waffles with big flavor.

2) Are these savory waffles vegan?

YEP! 100% vegan. 100% plant-based.

3) Do I need a waffle maker for this recipe?

For true waffles: yes. If you don’t have one, you can still cook the cold thick oats like savory pancakes (or more like a patty) in a skillet—same vibe, less grid, still delicious.

4) Can I meal prep these savory waffles? 

Absolutely. Make a batch, cool them completely, then store in the fridge and re-crisp in a toaster or air fryer for that fresh-off-the-iron crunch.

5) Can I freeze savory oatmeal waffles?

Yes—freeze them in a single layer first, then store in a freezer bag. Reheat straight from frozen in a toaster, toaster oven, or air fryer until crispy.

6) What are the best toppings for vegan savory waffles? 

Go savory and bold: avocado, salsa, hot sauce, vegan sour cream, sautéed veggies, hummus, or a tofu scramble. Basically: treat it like a crunchy edible plate.

7) How do I keep them from sticking to the waffle iron? 

 Preheat fully, then lightly oil the plates (spray or brush). Also: don’t rush the release—let them cook until they naturally lift easily.
