SUPER light and crispy olive oil waffles with dark chocolate sauce!
Author: Sarah Coates
Serves: Serves 2-3
Ingredients
For the waffles:
1 cup (150g) plain flour
1½ tsp baking powder
4 tsp sugar
pinch of salt
1 egg
1 cup (250ml) milk
½ cup (125ml) olive oil
For the sauce:
3 oz (60g) dark chocolate
2 tbsp maple syrup
⅓ cup (80ml) coconut cream or regular cream
splash of water (if needed) to thin the sauce
ice cream, to serve
Instructions
To make the waffles, place the dry ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine.
Add in the egg, milk and oil, and stir together with a wooden spoon. Don't worry if the batter is lumpy - just don't overmix.
Bake the waffles on a medium-high setting on your waffle maker - they should be nice and dark golden brown. They will seem soft at first, but a few seconds out of the waffle maker, they will be crispy!
To make the sauce, place all the ingredients into a saucepan and melt together over a very low heat. Thin with a splash of water if it's too thick
Serve the waffles with the sauce, and a scoop of vanilla (or coconut) ice cream.
