Savory Spinach Waffles

Crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy inside — these vibrant green waffles are packed with fresh spinach and perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a light savory meal.

🌱 From the Field

Our fresh spinach blends beautifully into the batter, giving these waffles their rich green color and a boost of nutrients. It’s a fun and delicious way to enjoy leafy greens — even kids love them!

🧺 Ingredients (makes 6–8 waffles)

  • 2 cups fresh Wild Flight Farm spinach
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter
  • ½ cup grated cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or feta)

Optional: pinch of garlic powder or dried herbs (dill, oregano)

🔥 Instructions

1. Blend the greens:
In a blender, combine spinach and milk. Blend until smooth and bright green.

2. Make the batter:
Add eggs, flour, baking powder, salt, and oil. Blend or whisk until smooth. Stir in grated cheese and optional seasonings.

3. Preheat waffle iron:
Heat your waffle maker and lightly grease if needed.

4. Cook the waffles:
Pour batter into the waffle iron and cook according to your machine (about 3–5 minutes), until golden and slightly crisp.

5. Serve warm:
Remove and serve immediately or keep warm in a low oven.

🌾 Farmer’s Tip:

For extra crispiness, let the waffles cook a little longer and place them on a rack instead of stacking — this keeps them from getting soft.

🍽️ Serving Ideas:

  • Top with a fried or poached egg
  • Serve with sour cream or yogurt and fresh herbs
  • Add smoked salmon or avocado for a brunch plate
  • Use as a base for savory sandwiches
