Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 2 large Eggs
• 1.25 cups Whole milk
• 0.25 cups Olive oil
• 1.5 cups Fresh spinach
• 0.75 cups Feta cheese, crumbled
• 2 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
• 0 as needed Waffle maker spray or melted butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your waffle maker to medium-high heat according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, beat the eggs, then whisk in the milk and olive oil until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid over-mixing.

Step 5

Fold in the spinach, feta cheese, and chopped green onions until evenly distributed in the batter.

Step 6

Lightly grease the waffle maker with cooking spray or melted butter to prevent sticking.

Step 7

Scoop approximately 1/3 cup of batter (or the recommended amount for your waffle maker) onto the hot waffle iron and spread it out evenly.

Step 8

Close the lid and cook the waffle for 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp. Adjust cooking time as needed based on your waffle maker.

Step 9

Carefully remove the cooked waffle and transfer it to a wire rack to keep it crisp. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 10

Serve the waffles warm, optionally garnished with a dollop of Greek yogurt, extra crumbled feta, or a squeeze of lemon juice for added zest.
