Prep Time 2 minutes
Cook Time 3 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Yield 6 waffles

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)

Instructions

  • The recipe works well with spelt flour, white flour, or some brands of all purpose gluten free flour. I cannot vouch for results using almond flour or coconut flour. If you choose a liquid sweetener like maple syrup or honey, decrease the water by two tablespoons.
    To make protein waffles, whisk dry ingredients well. Stir in wet to form a batter. Depending on the type of protein powder, you may need to add more liquid a tablespoon at a time to achieve a pancake or waffle batter texture. I used this waffle iron. Preheat according to instructions for your specific waffle maker. Once hot, grease very well. Pour batter into the center of the iron (watch the video to see batter thickness). Close, and cook according to manufacturer's directions until the waffle is light and crispy. Re-grease the iron between waffles to prevent sticking.
