Oatmeal Raisin Waffles Lemon Waffles These waffles taste like an oatmeal raisin cookie. They are delicious when spread with apple butter. Makes 20 waffles 6 tablespoons packed light brown sugar 3 cups all-purpose flour 2 cups oatmeal (regular rolled oats, not quick oats) 4 teaspoons ground cinnamon 3 teaspoons baking powder 2 teaspoons baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 3 cups buttermilk 4 large eggs, lightly beaten 3⁄4 cup vegetable oil (you may substitute unsalted butter, melted and cooled) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 11⁄3 cups raisins Crumble the brown sugar to remove any lumps and place in a medium bowl with flour, oatmeal, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir to blend. Add buttermilk, eggs, oil, and vanilla. Stir until well blended and smooth. Stir in raisins. Let batter rest 5 minutes before using. Preheat your Cuisinart® Waffle Iron. When iron is ready, the audible signal will sound and green indicator light will illuminate. Pour a scant 11⁄2 cup of batter onto the center of the lower grid; spread batter using a heatproof spatula to within 1⁄2 inch of the edge of the grid. Close lid of waffle iron - green indicator light will turn off. When audible signal sounds and green indicator light turns on again, waffle is ready. Open lid and remove baked waffle. Repeat with remaining batter.
