Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 scoop protein powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a blender, combine the rolled oats, protein powder, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Blend until the oats are finely ground and everything is well-mixed.
Add the vanilla extract, egg, almond milk, Greek yogurt, and honey to the blender. Blend again until all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated and the batter is smooth.
Grease the waffle iron lightly with coconut oil or use cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron, enough to cover the surface without overflowing when the waffle iron is closed.
Cook the waffle according to your waffle iron's instructions, typically around 3-5 minutes, until golden brown and crisp on the outside.
Carefully remove the cooked waffle and repeat with the remaining batter until all the batter is used.
Serve the protein waffles warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh berries, additional Greek yogurt, or a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
