Cinnamon Raisin Cookie Waffles

In honor of National Waffle Day, I thought it was only appropriate to post one of my favorite waffle recipes. You could make these tonight for a "breakfast for dinner" meal or you could whip some of these up this weekend to celebrate the holiday. :)

I can't recall what website I got this original recipe from. It was a long time ago.

1 cup old fashioned oats
1 cup white whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon lite salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup raisins and more for garnishing
1 cup reduced fat or skim milk
