Description
Making these protein waffles is as easy as it gets — and yes, your blender does most of the work.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 medium ripe banana
- 2 large eggs
- 30g vanilla protein powder (or unflavored)
- 30g quick oats
- ½ tsp baking powder
- Optional: splash of milk or dairy-free milk (if batter is too thick)
- Cooking spray or oil for greasing waffle iron
Instructions
- Blend the batter: In a blender, combine the banana, eggs, protein powder, oats, and baking powder. Blend until smooth. The texture should be pourable but thick — similar to pancake batter. If it seems too thick, add a splash of milk to thin it out slightly.
- Preheat your waffle iron: While your batter rests for a minute or two (this helps the oats absorb the liquid), preheat your waffle iron. Spray it lightly with cooking spray or brush with oil to prevent sticking.
- Cook the waffles: Pour the batter into your hot waffle iron — enough to cover the surface but not overflow. Cook according to your waffle maker’s instructions, usually 3 to 5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp on the outside.
- Serve and enjoy: Carefully remove the waffle and serve warm. Top with your favorites — think Greek yogurt and berries, peanut butter and banana slices, or just a light drizzle of maple syrup.
Notes
- These protein waffles can be customized with your favorite toppings.
- They are a quick breakfast option, perfect for busy mornings.
