- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat waffle maker: Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure it’s hot and ready for the batter.
- Make oat flour: Blend the rolled oats in a blender or food processor until they form a fine, flour-like consistency for a smooth batter.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt, mixing thoroughly to evenly distribute all dry components.
- Add wet ingredients: Add the eggs, almond milk, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Stir or whisk gently until a smooth batter forms, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Cook the waffles: Pour the batter into the preheated waffle maker and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the waffles are crisp on the outside and cooked through inside.
- Serve: Carefully remove the waffles and serve immediately. Top with fresh fruit, yogurt, nut butter, or a drizzle of maple syrup to enhance the flavor and texture.
Notes
- You can substitute almond milk with any other plant-based or dairy milk if preferred.
- Adjust the cocoa powder amount to taste for a more or less intense chocolate flavor.
- For gluten-free preparation, ensure the rolled oats and protein powder are certified gluten-free.
- To store leftovers, keep waffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days or freeze for longer storage.
- Reheat waffles in a toaster or oven to maintain crispiness.
