Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Vanilla protein powder (whey or plant-based)
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1.25 cups Unsweetened almond milk
• 2 Eggs
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt (plain, non-fat)
• 2 tablespoons Melted butter or coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Sugar or sugar substitute
• 0 as needed Nonstick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, protein powder, baking powder, salt, and sugar or sugar substitute.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add the almond milk, Greek yogurt, melted butter or coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk until combined.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the waffle iron, using the recommended amount for your specific appliance (usually 1/2 to 3/4 cup). Spread it evenly if necessary.

Step 7

Close the lid and cook the waffle until golden brown and crisp, about 5-7 minutes depending on your waffle iron.

Step 8

Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the waffle iron as needed between batches.

Step 9

Serve waffles immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, Greek yogurt, nut butter, or sugar-free syrup.
