Preparation Steps
1
Finely chop the fresh spinach to ensure it's evenly distributed in the batter.
2
Crumble the feta cheese into smaller pieces for easier mixing into the batter.
3
Melt the butter over low heat, then let it cool for a few minutes.
4
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly combined.
5
In another bowl, whisk the eggs, then add the milk and melted butter. Mix thoroughly.
6
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix until just combined. Gently fold in the spinach and feta cheese.
7
Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it with butter or olive oil to prevent sticking.
8
Pour a portion of the batter onto the preheated waffle iron and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
9
Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter, and keep the waffles warm until serving.
10
Serve the waffles topped with extra feta cheese and a side of garlic yogurt or a light fresh salad.
