No special occasion necessary - The Oreo waffles recipe can be made for any occasion. They're especially popular for fun or indulgent moments. But they are most perfect for a special breakfast or brunch.
What is Oreo Waffles?
The history of Oreo waffles is rooted more in creative culinary experimentation than in a traditional origin story.
While Oreo cookies were introduced in 1912 by Nabisco and became one of the most iconic snacks worldwide, Oreo waffles are a modern invention that blends the love for this iconic cookie with breakfast foods.
Though there isn’t a single point of origin or a "creator" behind Oreo waffles, they are a testament to the culinary creativity of blending popular snacks with everyday meals.
Variations
- Churro version - dust with cinnamon sugar, and serve with chocolate dipping sauce.
- Minty style - add peppermint extract to the batter, then top with mint chocolate chip ice cream.
- Strawberry - fold crushed Oreos into the batter, top with fresh strawberries, whipped cream, and a chocolate drizzle.
Substitutions
- Milk - soy milk, almond milk or any plant-based milk can work
- All-purpose flour - whole wheat flour for a denser texture but a healthier option
- Granulated sugar - coconut sugar for a more natural sweetener or maple syrup
Storage
- Store leftover waffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- For longer storage, freeze them by placing the waffles in a single layer on a baking sheet, then freezing until solid. Once frozen, transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container and store for up to 1 month.
- To reheat, toast frozen waffles in a toaster or reheat them in the oven until warmed through.
Ingredients

- eggs
- vegetable oil
- milk
- vanilla extract

See recipe card for quantities.
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs together.
Beat until light and fluffy.
Add the vegetable oil, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
Gradually add the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, granulated sugar, and Oreo crumbs. Stir until well combined.
Add in your crushed Oreos into the waffle batter.
Your waffle batter should now look like this.
Spray the waffle iron with a cooking spray and add the waffle mix. Put just enough waffle batter so it still has space for it to spread and cook evenly.
Let it sit for about five to seven minutes if you want your waffles to be a bit crispy.
Now it's time to be creative! Garnish your waffles with crumbs, ice cream or whipped cream! Feel free to drizzle some powdered sugar for that melt-in-your-mouth goodness too!
Hint: When preparing your pancake mix or waffle batter, do not over mix. Overmixing will make your waffles or pancake rubbery.
⭐ Top Tips
- Always spray your waffle maker before putting in some batter. This would prevent the waffles from sticking.
- If you do not have a food processor to crush the oreo cookies, you can use a blender. it works just as fine.
