Homemade Oatmeal Waffles with Fruit Sauce

These are so easy, delicious and incredibly healthy!  We use a wonderful and simple fruit sauce instead of sugary syrup! The kids ask for them all the time!  I love to make a large batch, save the leftover waffles in the freezer and pop them in the toaster for the days we have to run out the door early in the morning.  They are even great for simple dinners too. I got this recipe from my dad!


4 cups oat flour or 5 cups ground oatmeal
2 tablespoons organic sugar or agave
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup flax meal (flax seeds ground in the blender)
4 cups filtered water
3 eggs
6 tablespoons organic canola oil

If you do not have a wheat grinder to grind oat groats in, simply grind 5 cups oatmeal into flour with a blender.  Mix all dry ingredients together first with a whisk.  Then add the wet, starting with the water, eggs and canola oil or any other oil you prefer to use.  ( I wouldn't recommend olive oil here).  Heat your waffle iron and proceed to cook accordingly.  

For the sauce: (pretty much a smoothie)
1 banana
1 cup water
1/2 cup applesauce
1-2 cups frozen berries of your choice

Blend together until smooth and wa-la you have fruit sauce!
