Blender-Batter Brown Rice Waffles or Pancakes - Quirky Cooking
 
Brown rice waffles with pure maple syrup and strawberries
 
This is the best waffle and pancake recipe ever – so light, and the waffles are nice and crispy – and they’re healthy too! They are dairy free, and gluten free if you use brown rice and/or buckwheat. They can also be made nut free and egg free. You can use all sorts of grains in this recipe (see variations below), so have fun experimenting! 



Blender-Batter Brown Rice Waffles or Pancakes - Quirky Cooking
Pancakes with Rapadura and lemon juice



You use the whole, raw grain to make these, not flour, so it’s best to start them the night before so you can let the batter sit overnight to increase digestibility.  Notice how light and white they are – like white flour pancakes, but much healthier. Everyone who tastes them loves them, even people who usually only eat wheat!

The method for this recipe is similar to the ‘blender batter baking’ method outlined in Sue Gregg’s Breakfast cookbook.  I’ve made my version dairy free, but instead of using rice-almond milk I’ve gone back to the basic ingredients and added raw almonds and water to the rice flour, so it makes its’ own milk. If you can’t have nuts, just use 330g of your preferred milk instead of the almonds and water and skip step 2.

Note: You can find fine sea salt for this recipe in my online store here!

1. Place in Thermomix and grind on speed 9 for 1 minute or so until fine:
– 250g raw brown rice (see variations below for other grain options)


2. Add nuts and grind for another 30 seconds on speed 9:
– 30g raw almonds (or raw cashews)
   Scrape down lid and sides of bowl with spatula.

3. Add and mix for 30 seconds on speed 9:
– 300g water
– 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
– 30g macadamia oil
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

4. Cover and leave to stand at room temperature overnight. (Or pour into a glass bowl and cover.)

5. When you’re ready to cook them, add and reblend on speed 9 for 1 minute:
– 1 large egg (optional – works fine without)

6. Blend in quickly but thoroughly on speed 5-6:
– 2 teaspoons baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

7. Preheat waffle iron, wiping surface with some oil. Bake waffles until crispy, and serve immediately with butter and/or pure maple syrup. Or cook as pancakes in a little coconut oil in frypan. Delicious!

Variations:
You can use all sorts of grains in this recipe, not just brown rice…
try a mixture of rice & rolled oats, or spelt & oats (1 cup rice/spelt, 1/2 cup oats), or buckwheat (hulled) and/or spelt.

Any of these grains will work: spelt, oats, brown rice, kamut, millet, buckwheat (hulled), barley (hulled), corn (whole dry, not cornmeal), quinoa... corn takes more grinding and is very noisy, but it works well.

You can also add 1 tablespoon linseeds if you like.

And of course, if you want you can stir in some chopped pecans/walnuts/sunflower seeds/berries/banana pieces into the batter – we love blueberries and banana!

Have fun 🙂

    Can this mix be used as a pancake mix do you think? I don’t have a waffle iron but want to try it.

    Hi Ang! Yes, you can use this as a pancake mix, but I find the rice ones stick a bit in my electric frypan, (might not if you have non-stick pan), so I use a mixture of rice & rolled oats, or spelt & oats (1 cup rice/spelt, 1/2 cup oats), or buckwheat (hulled) and/or spelt. I also make it a bit thicker. Try any of these grains: spelt, oats, brown rice, kamut, millet, buckwheat (hulled), barley (hulled), corn (whole dry, not cornmeal), quinoa… corn takes more grinding. You can also add 1 tablespoon flax seed if you like. And of course, if you want you can stir in some chopped pecans/walnuts/sunflower seeds/berries/banana pieces! (Just didn’t want to confuse everyone so I kept the recipe simple!) Have fun, Jo.

    I made these last night/today using 1 cup of rice and 1/2 cup of oats. They stuck to my waffle maker terribly! Even in the second round when we greased it up *really* well. What do you use to grease your pan? Any other advice for me? The broken bits I ate tasted good, anyway.

    Oh dear, sorry to hear that, Sally. Do you have a non-stick waffle maker? That’s what mine is. I just wipe it with olive oil before I start, and it’s usually fine. But rice has more of a tendency to stick than spelt, so you could try that – or mix rice and spelt grains. Maybe try adding a little more oil to the batter too. Hope you can get it to work next time. 🙂

    Thank you! While I love almond flour, it tends to get a little pricey. This is a gluten-free recipe that uses things I already have in the house. I made the waffles this morning and they cooked up really nicely, no sticking. I’m looking forward to trying a blend of quinoa and oats next time. Have you ever tried thinning the recipe a little to make crepes? It seems like it would work.
    Cheers,
    Jose

    Made these for breakfast this morning as had no buttermilk to do my normal TM recipe. Did not read ahead re leaving overnight – does this activate the rice and almonds? Still worked fine and I love the taste considering that are dairy free and sugar free. Did them as pancakes but will try the recipe for waffles as well as think would come up nice and crispy.

    Hmmm, I thought I answered this the other day! Anyway, the reason for soaking is it makes grains & nuts easier to digest, and makes them softer too so there’s no ‘gritty’ bits. I do sometimes make them without soaking when in a rush – you just have to grind the grains really well in a dry bowl. The brown rice waffles are the best – VERY light and crispy!! 🙂

    Just made these for my girls – they loved them 🙂
    I used just rice flour and placed baking paper on the fry pan. I even lifted the paper out of the pan to flip them – much easier 🙂
    Thanks again!

    Hi there, would this recipe work without the baking powder? (I have some but it contains the nasties) my little one is allergic to eggs to I would have to leave that out also.

    The stainless steel manufacturing waffle maker plate is the perfect material for this kind of a maker. There is an in depth instruction manual to be found inside the waffle maker which will give you up to date instructions about how to go about with it.

    Hi Jo. I’m planning on taking the batter with me for a weekend away. I want to make it on the Friday to have Sat morning. Would the batter still work fine if I did all the steps the night before?

    Thanks Jo, love your blog!

    Hi,
    What a great website! We are doing failsafe and cannot have apple cider. Wondering if you could substitute citric acid for the vinegar to soak the grains and nuts?

    Reply
  19. Jo Whitton says:

    Hi Anon failsafer! Citric acid should be fine, or whey if you can have it?

    Rachel, maybe just leave out the baking powder and soda, and whisk them into the batter in the morning.

    I found the recipe for these waffles from Jo’s recent email. I followed the recipe using brown basmati rice. I am not sure why but despite oiling my non-stick waffle maker very fastidiously, the mixture stuck like glue. I decided to try making pancakes instead. The mixture stuck when cooked in my Solidteknic frypan also. What did I do wrong? How can I cook the remaining mixture successfully? All was not lost as I ate the scrambled pancake – it was delicious.

      Hi Donna, I am so sorry that the mixture hasn’t worked out for you. Maybe try using different grain next time and possibly try adding an extra egg or little extra oil if too sticky? I’ve used medium grain brown rice for this recipe previously and haven’t had any issues with the stickiness. Hopefully it works for you next time. Good luck;-).

      Hi Anon, our recipes do not contain serving sizes but I guess you could try working it out by dividing total weight of finished dish by the number of servings? Good luck.

Today’s podcast is with David Westbrook @dave_westbrook_, a farming and business coach at @farmownersacademy, and we’re chatting about working smarter, not harder!

[Swipe left to see my most recent podcasts!]

In our frantically busy society, it's easy to get caught up in the "busyness equals success" trap. In this podcast, David shares his insights on how to stop glorifying "busy" and transition to working in a way that aligns with your values, and working smarter rather than harder. He gives plenty of down-to-earth, practical advice that will benefit your daily life, whether you're a farmer, a business person, a busy mum trying to keep up with all the cooking and organising for the family, or a teenager working on keeping up with school assignments!

We chat about:
- how a health crisis in David's family led him to regenerative farming
- how he changed the way he worked so he could focus more on health and family life
- top tips for time management
- slowing down to speed up, and working smarter not harder
- making a 'stop doing' list
- the 'brick theory' (also known as the 'brain dump')
- the 'traffic light theory' for prioritising tasks
- setting goals & creating your ideal week
- making a 'default diary'
- the power of your thoughts
- harnessing your dreams to change your life

Follow David at @dave_westbrook_ and also the @farmownersacademy for podcasts and tips that will inspire you to work smarter not harder! ✨

Oh guys, I’ve been meaning to tell you… I star Oh guys, I’ve been meaning to tell you… I started podcasting again!! 🎉🎉🎉 It’s been a while - I couldn’t keep up with everything while I was finishing my cookbook so my podcast “Quirky Cooking Chats” was a bit hit and miss last year! But baby, I’m back!! 😍 Tune in on Fridays!

Here’s part of the intro of my last podcast, “Creating Healthy Habits” - all about building new habits with tiny steps so they’re sustainable… then nurturing them so they grow and become an everyday part of your life. Tap on the link in my profile then on this video to watch the whole podcast.

You’ll find “Quirky Cooking Chats” on my YouTube channel, and also on Spotify and Apple and Google Podcasts. I’ve moved over to my own channel so this is kind of like “Season 2”! You’ll see 2 episodes so far on the new channel, with another being released tomorrow. Woo!! 🎉🎉🎉

I’ve had a few requests for the recipe for this I’ve had a few requests for the recipe for this delicious potato bake I shared in my stories on Monday - another amazing creation by my sister Joye. 😍 The lemon zest is a genius addition! So here it is, in her own words… she took a quick break from her gardening to write this down for us!! 😁🤗

✨Potato Bake✨

Equal amounts potato and sweet potato, peeled, sliced thinly, parboiled.
(I used 3 sweet and 3 regular)

Butter baking dish, layer potatoes.

Sauce:
1 cup cream
2 Tbsp natural yoghurt 
1/2 c chicken stock
1/2 tsp garlic powder 
1 tsp onion flakes
Zest of a lemon
Sprinkling of thyme
Salt and pepper, to taste

Mix together and pour over potatoes. Cover with grated cheese, bake etc

You'd have to adjust liquid amounts, so that it doesn't just coat it. It's got to be sitting in a puddle of it, so to speak.
————————————————

Yep, she’d rather be cooking or gardening than writing recipes 😄 so I’ll add some more details below in case you need it…

- If you don’t cope well with lactose, you could swap the cream for 24 hour sour cream and yoghurt*, or make cashew milk and use that without straining out the pulp so it slightly thickens, plus a little coconut yoghurt if you like. 

(*24 hour fermenting results in an almost completely lactose-free yoghurt/sour cream - tap on the link in my profile then on this photo for my 24 hour yoghurt and sour cream recipes and info). 

- Use as much cheese as you like, or leave it out if you’re dairy free. For dairy free, you could add a little non-fortified savoury yeast flakes to the sauce for a cheesy flavour - about two teaspoons.

- We used a 26x18cm dish.

- Oven temp was 180C (fan-forced) and it baked for about 30 mins (just until lightly browned).

Easy peasy! Enjoy 🤗🤗

I’ve put my order in for a coffee table because the Qld maple is so beautiful! (What do you think, Quirky coffee tables next? 😂)

If you’ve never tried pumpkin pie before, you need to!! I love how such basic ingredients like pumpkin, honey, coconut cream, egg yolks, butter, spices and almond meal can be transformed into a creamy, spicy, comfort-food treat the whole family loves! (Especially when it’s served with a dollop of cream or ice cream… 😁) You can find a few different ice cream recipes in my cookbooks, but we had a “treat day” and served it with ice cream from our local, organic dairy, @mungallicreek. ☺️

This Pumpkin Pie recipe is in my “Simple, Healing Food” cookbook, and in “A Taster” eBook. ❤️ The recipe is gluten free, grain free and free from refined sugars and starches, and there are instructions for equally delicious nut-free, dairy-free and egg-free variations. 

I hope you love it! 🤗

I had visitors this morning, and half an hour befo I had visitors this morning, and half an hour before they arrived I was desperately trying to find something for morning tea 🤔! I had no treats in the freezer, no blanched almond meal left, the pâté was frozen solid… I did have some whole almond flour and some raw cashews though, so I made a half batch of my Almond Meal Pastry using a mixture of milled cashews and whole almond flour. I pressed the pastry into muffin cups and baked for 10 mins or so at 180C, while making the lemon butter. While the pastry cooled, I chilled the lemon butter in the freezer, then filled the tart shells and topped with whipped cream. My friend Gabi (who grows and dries the freeze-dried raspberries and fruit you’ll see in my online store) brought some of her freeze-dried butterfly pea flowers for me to play with, so I sprinkled some over the whipped cream… Voila! An amazing morning tea without too much effort! Sooo delicious. I think I need to get these butterfly pea flowers in my store, don’t you?!! 😍

You can find the Almond Meal Pastry recipe in my cookbooks and also on the blog (the Chicken Pot Pies recipe); and the Lemon Butter is also on my blog. Another delicious variation is the Passionfruit Butter Tarts in my Simple, Healing Food cookbook! 😍
