Make satisfying, protein-packed waffles using whey protein powder for a fitness-friendly breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup oat flour
  • 1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: Zero calorie sweetener to taste

Instructions

  1. Combine the oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk dry ingredients together.
  2. In a separate small bowl, whisk the egg, almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Add sweetener if you are using it.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix; a few small lumps are acceptable.
  4. Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it if necessary.
  5. Pour the batter onto the hot waffle iron according to your machine’s instructions.
  6. Cook until the waffle is golden brown and firm, usually 3 to 5 minutes.
  7. Remove the waffle carefully and serve immediately with high-protein toppings.

Notes

  • If the batter seems too thick, add almond milk one teaspoon at a time until it reaches a thick but pourable consistency.
  • For best texture, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
  • You can meal prep these by freezing cooked waffles and reheating them in a toaster later.
