I added 2 tbls Splenda to the butter. Cooked it about 30 seconds after the light turned off on the Belgian waffle iron. They were Light, like an egg souffle, a little hard to get out of the waffle iron, not much substance. They were great. Light and fluffy. I will say if you wanted a heavy waffle this is not for you, but it is great as a fluffy souffle with a brown crust. We loved it.

Didn't like these at all. Slightly bitter and extremely soggy. No "crisp" to it.

I used wheat flour instead of oat, and added a pinch of baking powder to help the waffles rise. Besides, it's a descent recipe. One I will make again.

These "waffles" were disgusting! They were more like a sloppy egg mixture than a waffle. I ended up throwing the whole thing out. My dogs wouldn't even eat them.
