Oatmeal Cinnamon Waffles are the perfect way to start your morning breakfast. These waffles are a healthy alternative to cold cereal, and they are very filling. Sometimes on Saturday mornings, I just cannot wait to get out of bed and make oatmeal cinnamon waffles.
We make our own maple syrup or even buttermilk syrup. Don’t get me wrong, the buttermilk syrup tastes like caramel, and the oatmeal cinnamon waffles and the buttermilk syrup go together 100%! If you do not want to make the overnight breakfast casserole, you could always make oatmeal cinnamon waffles.
We always made our syrup growing up on the farm. The closest grocery store was 12 miles away, and so we learned to stock up and save. I also think that we learned to make some things on our own. Pancakes and waffles are a must on the farm, you need to eat something that is going to hold you over for a few hours.
And that is just what oatmeal cinnamon waffles do, they have some oatmeal in them, making it so that you can last for a good 4-5 hours. I also think that a waffle bar would be a great idea for a special occasion like Christmas morning or the day after Thanksgiving.
You can always have some neighbors over for dinner and cook up a batch of oatmeal cinnamon waffles. That way you do not have to spend the day or night slaving over a hot stove, and they can bring their favorite topping.

Cinnamon and oatmeal are two ingredients that my family really enjoys. They all love waffles, and this is a fun way to put those ingredients together. You will enjoy this twist to ordinary waffles.
When I was growing up, we had cooked cereal for breakfast every morning Monday through Friday. Saturday morning was special and we got waffles for breakfast every Saturday. We never really had a variety of waffles; just plain waffles, but they were good and we enjoyed the break from cooked cereal.
There were no pop out of the toaster waffles or anything like that. We did have Bisquick, but we didn’t use it that often. We usually just made the waffles from scratch. And we usually had just plain maple syrup that we made from scratch too, but sometimes we had chokecherry syrup that we made from the berries that we picked in our dry farm.
We never had syrup from a bottle that was purchased at the store. We would have loved these Oatmeal Cinnamon Waffles. I know that my family sure does. And the older I get, the more I love eating at home. I find that you can make amazing food at home and at half the cost!
Tips and Tricks For Oatmeal Cinnamon Waffles:
- I like to put the dry ingredients in a bowl, and then I make a well in the center, then I put the wet ingredients in and whisk it all together with a whisk that is a little larger. It seems that the whisks where the wires are close together, causes the dough to get stuck in the whisk and it makes it hard to mix together.
- Some ideas for a waffle bar, are: fresh fruit, your favorite syrup, chocolate chips, whipped cream or Reddi Wip. You could even use the same things that you would use on a banana split.
- You could also put some fresh or frozen blueberries in the batter.
- Don’t forget the Nutella!

I substituted almond milk and egg whites (husband is on a low-cholesterol diet). Still delicious — the two teenagers gave this recipe two thumbs up! My husband had applesauce instead of syrup! Said it was great!

I think that using non quick oats is a great idea. I’m thinking that they may provide a little more texture. Thank you for leaving a comment. I really love it when someone that has made the recipe leaves a comment. Happy cooking!

What kind of waffle maker are you using?
Reply
Amyon April 5, 2020 at 7:03 pm
I use a round Cuisinart waffle maker that is about 10 years old. I hope that you enjoy the waffles – we really like them.

I will try this recipe tomorrow, i would like to know if the oats should be blended or something before hand
Reply

No nothing needs to be blended before hand. Enjoy the waffles!

My guy loved this waffle. I heated maple syrup and sliced apple to top it.
Froze the remaining waffles. This recipe is a keeper!Reply

Can I use old fashion oats and 1% milk?
Reply
Amyon August 29, 2022 at 10:10 pm
That will be fine. I actually just used old fashioned oats in the ones that I made Saturday! And the 1% milk should be fine too. Thank you for coming by and for your question. I hope that you enjoy the waffles as much as we do!

I make these all the time. I’ve used whole wheat flour, added ginger and added honey. Kids love them! They freeze well too.

Love, love love and true confessions – I’ve now made these two days in a row for two separate groups of people. I added a generous 3/4 cup oats (regular rolled oats as I did not have quick oats) plus 1/2 cup buckwheat and then for the one group 1 cup of regular flour and for the other group 1 cup of gluten free. I also added dried cherries and chopped up walnuts. Fantastic! This recipe is a keeper – thank you!

I was looking for a recipe to try with the cute little Dash wafflemaker that I had, and I came across this. I was hoping it would be a big success and it most certainly was! Thinking of making another batch and storing them in the freezer for quick breakfasts for the kids. Planning to pop them in the toaster and see if that works.

That sounds like a great idea – I can’t imagine why it wouldn’t work. Thank you for leaving a comment. We are so glad that they were a success for you. We love these waffles!
