Overnight Oatmeal Waffles

Yield - about two regular waffles of four squares each.  

Ingredients:

• 1 cup uncooked old fashioned oats
• 1 cup buttermilk or kefir
• 1 egg, lightly beaten  
• 2 tbsp canola oil 
• 1 tbsp raw honey
• 1/4 cup oat flour   *see note below    
• 1 tsp baking soda
• pinch of salt

Directions:

1. Stir oats and buttermilk or kefir together, cover, and refrigerate overnight. 
2. In the morning add the egg, canola oil, and honey; stir well.  
3. In a separate bowl, mix the oat flour, baking soda, and salt.  Stir this into the buttermilk mixture just until blended.  
4. Preheat waffle iron, and cook - waffles are done in about five minutes or when the flow of steam from waffle iron has slowed.  

*Regarding oat flour - it is available in some stores, but you can also make it in practically no time, by putting old fashioned, uncooked oats into your blender, and pulsing a couple of times.  Voilà - oat flour!  Of note - almond flour also works well in this recipe.
