Hazel's Rice and Nut Waffles

This recipe involves " prior planning " . The results are a crispy, crunchy waffle

that is delicious!

 

 

Soak overnight or at least two hours:

 

 

1 cup long grain brown rice

1 1/2 cups water

 

 

In the morning, plug in waffle iron. Now put the soaked rice and water in the

blender and blend with:

 

 

1/2 cup nuts -OR- sesame seeds

 

 

Blend until very creamy, three minutes or more.

Now add and blend again:

 

 

1/2 cup cooked brown rice

1 1/4 cup more water

1/2 tsp (plus) salt

 

 

When waffle iron is very hot, reblend batter and pour gently and systematically

into lightly greased (or PAM sprayed) iron. Fill grids to cover well - using

about 1 cup batter. Leave open 15 to 30 seconds. Gently lower the cover. Bake

about 10 minutes or until they begin to brown. DO NOT open the waffle iron to

check waffles before time is up.

 

Serve hot or freeze and toast before serving.

 

 

This recipe makes 8 waffles in a 2 piece waffle iron.

 

 

 

NOTE: Filberts (hazelnuts) require 1/4 cup more water.

 

NOTE: The first greasing of the iron should be sufficient.
