Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1/3 cup protein powder (32g)
- 1/4 cup flour (35g)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/8 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 cup egg whites or additional water
- 1/4 cup yogurt or applesauce
- 2 tbsp sweetener of choice
- 2 tsp oil (optional, for crispy waffles)
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: Whisk together all the dry ingredients in a bowl until well combined. Then, stir in the wet ingredients gradually to form a smooth batter. If the batter seems too thick, adjust the consistency by adding more water or egg whites as needed.
- Cook the Waffles: Preheat your waffle iron and grease it thoroughly to prevent sticking. Pour the batter evenly into the preheated iron, close the lid, and cook until the waffles are light golden brown and crispy on the outside. Carefully remove and repeat for the remaining batter, greasing the iron between batches as necessary.
Notes
- Using oil in the batter is optional but helps achieve crispier waffles.
- Substitute yogurt with applesauce for a dairy-free option.
- Adjust sweetener quantity based on your taste preferences or dietary needs.
- Ensure the waffle iron is fully preheated before cooking for best texture.
- Leftover waffles can be frozen and reheated in a toaster or oven.
