Note

For a strictly vegan version, substitute the honey with agave nectar or maple syrup.

The batter is quite thick due to the oats; ensure your blender is powerful enough to handle the consistency. If it's too thick, add a splash more water.

These waffles are best served fresh. They can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in a toaster oven.

Feel free to experiment with other dried fruits like cranberries or chopped figs for variety.
