Chickpea Waffles With Chia Seed Yogurt
From Eat What You Love Diabetes Cookbook [1] by Lori Zanini, RD, CDE
Notes
Chickpea flour is a great gluten-free flour substitute. You can find chickpea flour in most grocery stores or online.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
1 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
1 1/2 cups chickpea flour
3 tablespoons flaxseed meal
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 medium egg
1 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
- In a small bowl, stir the chia seeds into the yogurt. Set aside.
- Preheat a waffle iron on high. Preheat the oven to its lowest setting (typically around 160ºF).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the chickpea four, flaxseed meal, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
- In a small bowl, mix the egg, almond milk, coconut oil, and vanilla. Pour the wet mixture into the mixing bowl, and stir to combine.
- Drop 1/4-cup portions of the batter onto the hot waffle iron, close, and cook until the waffle easily pulls away from the iron when opened, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Transfer each finished waffle to the rack in the oven to keep warm and crisp until serving time. Serve the waffles with the yogurt-chia mixture spooned over the top.
