Healthy Protein Waffles

Say goodbye to boring breakfasts! These light, crispy protein waffles taste like a treat — but they’re secretly packed with over 45 grams of protein. 🧇✨ The perfect fuel for your morning hustle!

Ingredients:

1/3 cup protein powder (32g)
1/4 cup flour (35g)
1 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp salt
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup egg whites (or additional water)
1/4 cup yogurt or applesauce
2 tbsp sweetener of choice
2 tsp oil (optional, for crispy waffles)

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Mix dry ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together protein powder, flour, baking powder, and salt until fully combined.
Add the wet ingredients
Stir in water, egg whites (or more water), yogurt (or applesauce), and sweetener. If your protein powder is thick, slowly add extra water 1 tbsp at a time until the batter is pourable like pancake batter.
Preheat & grease your waffle iron
Turn on your waffle maker and let it heat fully. Spray both sides well with nonstick spray. 🔥
Cook the waffles
Pour batter into the center of the waffle iron and close the lid. Cook according to the waffle maker’s directions, usually 2–4 minutes, until golden and crispy. Re-grease the iron between each batch.
Serve & enjoy
Enjoy hot with maple syrup, peanut butter, fruit, or even turn it into a waffle breakfast sandwich! 🍓🥜

Pro Tips:

Make it vegan: Use plant-based yogurt and water instead of egg whites.
Freezer-friendly: Cool completely, stack with parchment, and freeze. Reheat in a toaster!
Customize the flavor: Try chocolate, chai, vanilla, or birthday cake protein powders.
