Almond Butter Chia Pudding Waffle Topper (V, GF)

Waffling on your weekend breakfast plans? Sure, you could add a handful of fresh berries to a bowl of your go-to waffle or pancake batter, again... but you could also outfit your Saturday stack with a scoop of the dreamiest garnish in the land: Almond Butter Chia Pudding. 

Our new breakfast pot was born to top morning pastries, didn’t you know? Psst: Don’t have a favourite waffle or pancake recipe? Waffle lovers: We highly recommend the Banana Coconut Waffles by The First Mess. Flapjack fiends: Turn to page 36 of The Greenhouse Cookbook with haste. 

Garnishes three to five plates.

Ingredients:

Your favourite waffle (or pancake) recipe

Garnish:

1 pot Greenhouse’s Almond Butter Chia Pudding

One banana, sliced into rounds

Handful of cacao nibs, for topping

Handful of chia seeds, for topping

Maple syrup, for topping

Steps:

Prepare your waffles (or pancakes), following the steps on your favourite recipe. We know the scent alone will tempt you to eat pastries straight from the pan, unadorned. Resist.

Transfer your waffles to clean plates, and top each with a scoop of chia seeds, cacao nibs, and sliced bananas.

You’re not done yet. Add a generous scoop of Almond Butter Chia Pudding to each eater’s stack. One breakfast pot should be used to garnish three to five plates.

Drizzle with maple syrup, and slice in!

GOOD MORNING!!! I Give You- ‘Fry Poached Eggs.’

I love eggs for breakfast.  Lucky for me there are a lot about.  My problems begin when I try to decide how I want to cook them.

For em, fried eggs (sunny up or over easy) are always a good option but one that requires fat to cook, finesse or a non stick pan (I don’t have one) and I want easy low fat, easy eggs NOW!

I like a runny yoke so that leaves poaching or minute eggs.

Yum Yum Yum!
