grandma's norwegian oatmeal waffles
From Cabbagetown Cafe Cookbook by Julie Jordan. Here's what she says about this recipe. Back in the good old days, my grandmother and grandfather ran a Norwegian waffle house in Brooklyn. There were lines around the block waiting to get in. One Christmas my grandparents wanted to go to a big party the relatives were throwing, so they sold the restaurant. I like that story, lol.
