Protein Waffles

The best thing about this recipe is that if you don’t have a waffle iron you can use this same recipe to make a pancake batter. But who would want pancakes when you can have Healthy Protein Waffles? As a great meme once said, “pancakes are just waffles without abs”.

Recipe type: Breakfast

Serves: 3

Ingredients

2 eggs
7 tbsp. of yoghurt
5 tbsp. of spelt flour
1tbsp.of protein powder
1 tsp. of cinnamon
½ tsp. of baking powder
OPTIONAL EXTRAS
1 tsp. of lucuma/baobab/maca

Instructions

Blend everything in a food processor adding the wet ingredients first (eggs & yoghurt), then the dry ingredients (flour, protein, cinnamon & baking powder).
Blitz until smooth.
Heat your waffle iron to required temperature.
Grease it to stop the waffles from sticking, then pour in enough batter to fill the mould to the edges. This will vary depending on the waffle iron you have.
Cook until the waffle starts to turn brown. Brown not golden. You want the outside of the waffle to form a thin layer of crust, that is what gives a waffle its firmness and rigidity unlike a pancake. Mine took around 3 minutes but again this will vary depending on your waffle iron.
Remove the waffle, grease again and add the batter for the second waffle.
Repeat.

Notes

Top them with what ever you like. This time round I went for some honey and cherries but some firm favourites are;
Strawberries & melted dark chocolate
Peanut butter & sliced banana
Blueberries and maple syrup
