We are getting ready for back to school, and these Spelt Toaster Waffles are the perfect thing to stock your freezer with for those busy mornings!
Mornings with or without kids can be a little bit chaotic, and breakfast is one of those meals that so easily gets skipped. For days when you’ve only got a few minutes, these toaster waffles are a must! They’re healthier than store bought ones and in my opinion, much more delicious. We doctored up our waffles with some fresh berries, Greek yogurt, and a touch of maple syrup! If berries aren’t quite in season you can make a simple syrup by using frozen berries and microwaving them with a little bit of maple syrup. It makes for such a quick and easy sauce that the kids will love.
These waffles were first created for the Fraîche at Home Meal Plan but were taken out in favour of a savoury recipe and we thought it was about time to share them with you! What makes a toaster waffle so great is that they get the perfect amount of crisp in the toaster. Making them great to sit down and eat or take on the go. This makes a big batch so turn on the music and get to waffle-ing!
If you’re looking for more yummy breakfasts, these Breakfast Taquitos are great to stock your freezer with. Or these Breakfast Power Cookies will have you fuelled and ready to take on the day!
What is Spelt Flour?
Spelt flour is an ancient grain that’s less refined, and thus healthier, than an all-purpose flour! Since it’s in a less refined state, it’s higher in fibre than your typical white flour. It’s a great ingredient here as the fibre helps lower blood-sugar spikes making it a great ingredient for breakfast!

These look delicious and so filling! Pinning this so I can try the recipe out for myself 🙂
These are perfect for freezing and putting in the toaster. I successfully divided the recipe by 6 as I didn’t have time to sit and make too many. They rise to be nice and fluffy and the texture is great. A hint of sweet which makes them great without adding extra syrup on top.
This is my first time making something using spelt flour and I will definitely look for other recipes with it.
Love these so much! A go-to recipe
Family favorite!
That’s so great thanks Karin!!! Tori
