How to Make Protein Waffles

  1. Combine coconut flour, baking powder, protein powder, and cinnamon in one bowl and almond milk, vanilla extract, and egg whites in another.
  2. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir and mix well.
  3. Add half of the batter to the iron for the first waffle. Pay close attention to adding the batter to the edges of the iron first. This will help ensure the waffles turn out full.
  4. Close the iron and cook until the waffles are golden brown.

How Do the Waffles Taste?

If you have never eaten food cooked with protein powder, these waffles may be an adjustment for you. Adding protein to the batter does create a texture that tastes thicker than a normal waffle. Having the icing in this recipes really goes a long way. It keeps the waffles from tasting dry.

Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons coconut flour Use a sifter or strainer to sift the flour in a bowl. The flour will be lumpy if you skip this step.
  • 1 scoop protein powder 20-28 grams
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons almond milk The amount of milk you will need will vary based on the protein powder that you use. Some brands are thicker than others. Start with 2 tablespoons of milk and then add more to make the mixture form into a batter.
  • 4 egg whites
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder Use vegan or paleo friendly if desired
  • cooking spray

Frosting

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1-2 teaspoons almond milk
  • 2 tablespoons protein powder

Instructions

  • Combine all of the dry ingredients in one bowl and the wet ingredients in another.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir and mix well.
  • Turn on the waffle iron. When the iron indicates it is ready, spray it with cooking spray.
  • Add the half of the batter to the iron for the first waffle. Pay close attention to adding the batter to the edges of the iron first. This will help ensure the waffles turn out full.
  • Close the iron and cook until the waffles are golden brown. Most irons have an indicator light for when the waffles are finished.

How many waffles do you get if using a dash waffle maker?

I usually don't review recipes, but I felt the need to this time... This recipe was a huge disappointment. It looked delicious, but the texture and flavor were really bad. The only reason I will be finishing the waffles is so that I do not waste food. I've made plenty of other protein waffle recipes much better than this.

Didnโ€™t work for me - inedible. Maybe I just cooked them too long but the flavor wasnโ€™t there either.

I made the waffles this morning. They were a tad dry...any suggestions? Also, I had to add more cashew milk because the batter was really chunky. The taste was good, just dry:(

Mine aren't dry. I didn't use the milk you did so that may be why. You can also try my other waffles recipe. https://www.staysnatched.com/cinnamon-roll-chaffles/

Love the recipe! I used whole eggs, and whey protein powder but they came out nice.
