Ingredients
- 1 cup bran flakes
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 peaches, sliced
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 cup of bran flakes, 1 cup of milk, 1/4 cup of vegetable oil, 1 egg, 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 2 peaches, sliced.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the bran flakes and milk. Allow them to soak for about 5 minutes. This will soften the bran flakes and help incorporate them into the batter.
- After the bran flakes have soaked, add the vegetable oil and egg to the mixture. Whisk together until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly mixed.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. If necessary, lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick spray or a small amount of vegetable oil.
- Once the waffle iron is ready, pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the center of the iron, usually about 1/2 to 3/4 cup, depending on the size of your waffle iron. Close the lid and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically for about 5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp.
- While the waffles are cooking, wash and slice the peaches. You can serve the peaches fresh or lightly sauté them in a pan over medium heat with a little sugar for 2-3 minutes until they are warmed and slightly caramelized.
- Once the waffles are done, carefully remove them from the waffle iron and keep them warm in a low oven if necessary while you cook the remaining batter.
- To serve, stack the waffles on plates and top with the sliced peaches. Optionally, drizzle with maple syrup or a dollop of whipped cream for added sweetness.
- Enjoy your delicious bran waffles with peaches, perfect for breakfast or a delightful brunch!
Tips
- Let your bran flakes soak in milk for exactly 5 minutes to achieve the perfect texture and moisture.
- Don't overmix your batter – a few lumps are your secret to fluffy waffles!
- For extra flavor, consider lightly caramelizing your peaches with a sprinkle of brown sugar.
- Preheat your waffle iron completely to ensure crispy, evenly cooked waffles.
- If you want to make ahead, these waffles freeze beautifully. Just reheat in a toaster for a quick breakfast.
- For a protein boost, try adding a scoop of protein powder to your dry ingredients.
- Experiment with toppings like Greek yogurt, honey, or chopped nuts for added texture and nutrition.
