Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Brown rice flour
- 0.5 cup Unflavored protein powder
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 Eggs
- 1.5 cups Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron to the desired temperature.
In a large mixing bowl, combine brown rice flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, olive oil, and honey until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. If using, stir in the chia seeds.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with a little bit of oil or cooking spray.
Pour the batter onto the preheated waffle iron, using about 1/2 cup of batter per waffle (or as recommended by your waffle iron manufacturer).
Close the waffle iron and cook for about 4-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through.
Carefully remove the waffles from the iron and repeat the process with the remainder of the batter.
Serve the waffles warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh berries, yogurt, or a drizzle of additional honey.
