Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups gluten-free rolled oats
• ½ cup almond flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 ripe bananas
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup almond milk
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Cooking spray or melted butter, for greasing the waffle iron

Directions

1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
2. In a blender or food processor, blend the gluten-free oats until they resemble a fine flour-like consistency.
3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the oat flour, almond flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
4. In a separate bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the eggs, almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Mix well until all the ingredients are combined.
5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to dense waffles.
6. Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or melted butter.
7. Scoop the batter onto the hot waffle iron, using about ½ cup of batter for each waffle. Close the lid and cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp.
8. Carefully remove the waffles from the waffle iron and place them on a wire rack to cool slightly.
9. Repeat the process with the remaining batter until all the waffles are cooked.
10. Serve the gluten-free oatmeal waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruits, maple syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
