Start your day with these fluffy and delicious Nut-Free Banana Protein Waffles, a wholesome and energizing breakfast option thatโs perfect for the whole family. Made with naturally sweet mashed bananas, protein-packed oat flour, and a boost of vanilla or plain protein powder, these waffles are completely nut-free, catering to those with nut allergies or dietary restrictions. The combination of eggs, milk (dairy or non-dairy), and a hint of vanilla extract creates the perfect blend of flavor and texture, while olive oil or melted butter ensures every waffle is golden and crisp. Ready in just 25 minutes, theyโre ideal for busy mornings, post-workout meals, or leisurely weekend brunches. Pair these waffles with fresh fruit, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt for a customizable and nutritious treat!
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth.
Add the eggs to the mashed bananas and whisk until fully combined.
Mix in the vanilla extract and olive oil or melted butter.
In another bowl, combine oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
Gradually add the dry mixture to the banana mixture, alternating with the milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with a small amount of oil or cooking spray.
Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron and cook until the waffles are golden brown and easily release from the iron, approximately 3-5 minutes per batch.
Carefully remove the waffles and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings like fresh fruit, syrup, or yogurt.
