Mini Waffle Omelets (BLW & Toddler)
Your new favorite way to make eggs: in your mini waffle maker! Great for baby-led weaning, easy toddler breakfasts, and make-ahead meal prep breakfasts.
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tbsp milk (any kind)
- ¼ cup cheddar cheese (finely shredded)
- ¼ cup broccoli (finely chopped)
- salt and pepper (to taste)
- nonstick spray (I like Chosen Foods)
Instructions
- Mix the eggs and milk together in a liquid measuring cup (with a pour spout)
- Add the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped broccoli
- Mix until combined
- Add salt & pepper (omit for baby)
- Plug in your mini waffle maker (when the blue light turns off, it's ready!)
- Spray with nonstick spray (I like Chosen Foods)
- Pour in just enough mixture to coat the bottom of the waffle maker (not too much or it will overflow)
- Cook for about 30 seconds!
- Carefully remove to a plate or cooling rack with a nonstick spatula
- Continue with the rest of the mixture
Notes
- If you're unsure if the egg waffle is ready, gently poke with a fork and see if the inside is still liquid-y at all
- If it needs more time, just close the lid for a few seconds
- These cook very quickly - so keep an eye on them!
- When you first open the lid, the waffle egg will shrink, this is normal!
- Note on broccoli: I've tried this recipe with leftover roasted broccoli, fresh, and frozen - it worked great each time!
- Freezing and baby-led weaning instructions included above
