Protein waffles recipe card – high-protein healthy breakfast idea

Protein Waffles

These high protein waffles pack 15 grams of protein per waffle thanks to vanilla whey protein powder and oat flour, with a mashed banana keeping things naturally sweet. The batter comes together in two bowls in about 10 minutes, and each waffle cooks in just a few minutes on the iron. I like making these on Sunday so I can grab them from the fridge during the week and reheat them for a quick breakfast that actually keeps me full.

Ingredients
  

Base:
  • 2/3 cup oat flour
  • 1/3 cup vanilla whey protein powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions
 

  1. Preheat your waffle iron
  2. Mix all of your dry ingredients into a large bowl.
