Protein Waffles
These are exactly the way waffles should be: crispy on the outside & fluffy on the inside. As a bonus they’re also packed with protein! They’re a blood-sugar friendly & totally satiating version of this favorite breakfast treat
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour I used GF one-for-one
- 1/3 cup protein powder of choice I use vanilla flavor
- 1/3 cup tapioca flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- Large pinch salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon optional
- 1 cup nondairy milk
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 eggs
- 2 TBSP coconut oil melted
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s directions
- In a small bowl or cup, mix together the nondairy milk & the ACV. Let sit while you prep the rest of the ingredients.
- In a medium or large bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients until fully incorporated and most of the clumps are gone.
- Add the homemade buttermilk (milk + ACV), eggs, and melted oil/butter to the dry ingredients and whisk until no dry flour remains and the batter is smooth.
- Cook according to your waffle maker’s recommendation. I pour ½ cup of batter for each waffle and cook on a medium-high setting. This makes 4 waffles with a crispy outside and fluffy inside.
- Top with whatever your heart desires! You can refrigerate or freeze any leftover waffles and reheat in the oven, a toaster, an airfryer, or back in the waffle maker!
