Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Oats
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 scoop Vanilla Protein Powder
- 3 large Egg Whites
- 1 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 tablespoon Honey or Maple Syrup
- as needed Non-stick Cooking Spray
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a blender, combine the oats, baking powder, salt, vanilla protein powder, egg whites, almond milk, vanilla extract, and honey or maple syrup.
Blend the mixture until it is smooth and there are no oat granules visible. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
Allow the batter to sit for 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
Lightly coat the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray.
Pour the batter onto the preheated waffle iron, using a ladle or measuring cup to ensure even distribution.
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 with the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles warm, topped with your favorite fruits, a dollop of yogurt, or a drizzle of low-calorie syrup if desired.
