Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, oat flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, mix the almond milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup. Then, add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition.
Stir in the applesauce and chia seeds into the wet ingredients. Ensure everything is well incorporated.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined to avoid overmixing.
Fold in the whey protein powder, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Melt the coconut oil gently in a microwave or on the stove, then add it to the batter mixture, folding until incorporated.
Lightly brush or spray the preheated waffle iron with coconut oil to prevent sticking.
Pour the recommended amount of waffle batter onto the iron and close the lid. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through.
Carefully remove the waffles from the iron and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles with your choice of toppings such as fresh fruit, more maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt.
