Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 scoop (30g) vanilla whey protein powder
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: 1/4 cup chocolate chips or berries

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, protein powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. If using, gently fold in chocolate chips or berries.
  5. Preheat your waffle iron according to manufacturer instructions.
  6. Pour about 1/2 cup of batter onto the hot waffle iron and cook until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Repeat with remaining batter.
  8. Serve immediately or let cool completely before freezing.

Notes

  • For best results, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
  • To freeze, place cooled waffles on a baking sheet in a single layer until firm, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container. Reheat in a toaster or oven.
  • Add a dash of cinnamon or a tablespoon of Greek yogurt to the batter for extra flavor and protein.
  • These waffles are a great option for meal planning and can be part of a healthy breakfast.
