Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored whey protein powder (approx. 30g)
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/2 cup egg whites
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle iron according to manufacturer instructions.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, protein powder, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the almond milk, egg whites, Greek yogurt, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Lightly grease your waffle iron if needed. Pour about 1/2 cup of batter onto the hot waffle iron.
  6. Cook for 4-6 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  8. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, or let cool completely before freezing for meal prep.

Notes

  • For added flavor, you can add 1/4 cup of berries or a tablespoon of cocoa powder to the batter.
  • To freeze, place cooled waffles in a single layer on a baking sheet until firm, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container. Reheat in a toaster or oven.
  • These waffles pair well with fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey, or a dollop of nut butter.
