Try red waffles – tasty beetroot waffles made in the blender. Beetroot has a natural sweetness, so the waffles are both sweet and beautifully coloured. Beetroot also contains vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and fibre.

This recipe shows how to make the batter in a blender, but a stick blender also works. You can also make beetroot waffles the classic way by stirring the batter by hand. Then you need to pre-cook the beetroot first – we recommend baking them in the oven until soft (approx. 30 min), which gives them a good flavour and more sweetness.
