Blackberry Rosemary Jam with Belgium Style Waffles

Posted on July 6, 2021February 26, 2022 by Jen

Oodles of Oublies…

A Bit of History:

Historians believe that waffles likely originated in ancient Greece. Early waffles, named obelios and shaped like flat cakes, were cooked between two heated metal plates. This tradition and recipe slowly made its way to Europe. People in the 9th century developed iron plates with extended handles, known as oublies or wafer irons, to cook a flour and water batter. Over the next few centuries, cooks incorporated honey and other flavoring ingredients to the batter. By 1270, an oublieurs guild formed and members produced the cooking irons and some light pastries that eventually evolved into waffles. Eventually, waffles made their way to colonial America with the pilgrims. However, it wasn’t until 1906, that the first electric waffle iron was manufactured and home cooks have been experimenting ever since!

About the Recipe: Blackberry Rosemary Jam

Everyone in my house love pancakes and waffles and each of us have our favorite toppings. As spring and summer arrive, we enjoy berry picking. Nonetheless, every year we forget how big the berry buckets are and pick more fruit than we can consume before spoilage. However, a surplus of berries often leads to a fun recipe, like Blackberry Rosemary Jam.

Incorporating rosemary, balances the sweetness of berries and honey, rounding out the flavors of the jam. Pair with some easy, fresh Belgium style waffles and you have a delicious brunch worthy breakfast! In addition, Blackberry Rosemary Jam also makes the perfect companion for toast, ice cream, oatmeal, or wheat berries. You can even add it into smoothies! Better yet, this versatile batter may be used in a waffle maker or cooked into pancakes on a griddle.

Slow Food, Less Effort, 1 Ingredient at a Time

Are you striving to make a lifestyle change or looking to discover plant-focused recipes the whole family will love?

My name is Jen. I am a wife, mom, and a pharmacist. I love to cook for my family, hike, run, and read about history. I enjoy eating fresh, seasonal, locally available produce. In addition to endurance trail runs and long bike rides, I will happily set out on foraging hikes for mushrooms and truffles.

Waiting for the seasons to change, fruits to ripen, vegetables to mature, or truffles to reach their peak (7-11 years) is an endurance sport in itself.  Nonetheless, the time and effort spent is well worth crossing that finish line and enjoying a delicious, healthy meal.

I always say the slower you run, the more you enjoy the trail. Food is the same. Cooking together in the kitchen with freshly harvested fruits and vegetables is all about taking life slower and enjoying the process and experience. Plant-based, healthy food for the whole family with less effort, so you can slow down and enjoy life!
