Make satisfying, protein-packed waffles using simple ingredients. This recipe delivers a great texture for a healthy, fitness-friendly morning meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup oat flour
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored whey protein powder
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (2% or whole milk)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil or butter

Instructions

  1. Combine the oat flour, all-purpose flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk these dry ingredients together well.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, Greek yogurt, almond milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few small lumps are fine.
  4. Stir in the melted coconut oil or butter.
  5. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s directions. Lightly grease the iron if necessary.
  6. Pour the batter onto the hot iron, using the amount recommended for your specific iron size.
  7. Cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, usually 4 to 6 minutes.
  8. Serve immediately with your favorite healthy toppings.

Notes

  • For fluffier waffles, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
  • If the batter seems too thick, add almond milk one tablespoon at a time until it reaches a pourable consistency.
  • This recipe works well for meal prep; cool completely before freezing in an airtight container.
