Ingredients
Waffle Batter
- 2 eggs
- 1 scoop of your favorite protein powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
- 1 ripe banana
- 3/4 cup oats
Instructions
- Prepare the batter: In a blender, combine the eggs, protein powder, cinnamon, vanilla bean paste, ripe banana, and oats. Blend until the mixture reaches a smooth, pancake-batter consistency.
- Heat waffle iron: Preheat your mini waffle iron and lightly spray it with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Cook the waffles: Pour the batter onto the heated waffle iron's griddle. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes or until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Serve the mini protein waffles warm with your choice of toppings such as homemade whipped cream, sugar-free maple syrup, or fresh berries for added flavor and nutrition.
Notes
- Use gluten-free oats if you require a gluten-free version.
- The protein powder flavor can be adjusted according to your preference; vanilla or unflavored protein powders work best.
- For extra fiber, add a tablespoon of ground flaxseed or chia seeds to the batter.
- If you do not have vanilla bean paste, vanilla extract can be substituted.
- These waffles can be made ahead and frozen; reheat in a toaster or oven for a quick breakfast.
