Protein Waffles
Heya,
Although I have posted multiple waffles recipes on my page (I do love my waffle machine!), I wanted to post this one as well as it is, without a doubt my favourite. I've recently been really into recipes from Chat GPT as I can adapt is to my liking and it also normally means I have all the ingredients available. This recipe is great because of how versatile it is. I stand by the fact, you can waffle anything that has been mixed with egg (or banana to be fair!) so I knew whatever ingredients I put in my batter, I would be able to waffle it. I wanted to make high protein waffles as they keep me full and I have super tasty flavours which I find just give the waffles that extra boost of yumminess but the protein powder can easily be subbed for more flour or even cocoa/hot chocolate powder as I know that protein powder can be pricy! I served my waffles with yoghurt and frozen raspberries (because, you guessed it, I ran out of fresh raspberries!) but you can easily top it with anything. I know my brother would likely do peanut butter and banana and you could even make them savoury by doing salmon and avocado (which I am apparently strange for liking on my waffles and pancakes). I hope this recipes gives you as much joy as it does for me!
Here is my recipe for Protein Waffles:
Ingredients: (Makes 6) - total cost: £0.22 per waffle (excluding toppings!)
- 50g Plain Flour (£0.03)
- 110-115ml Milk - I used Almond but any works (£0.07)
- 1 Egg (£0.22)
- 25g Protein Powder - I use Misfits Salted Caramel but any works (£0.93)
- 1tsp Baking Powder (£0.04)
- butter/oil (spray) (£0.02)
- Your chosen toppings
Method:
- In a bowl whisk the egg and milk with a fork
- Add in the baking powder, flour and protein powder and continue to mix until smooth
- Let your waffle maker heat up and make sure it is greased well
- Add a heaped tablespoon of you batter to the waffle machine and leave for 3-4 minutes depending on how well done you like your waffles (I like mine medium rare haha!)
- Repeat until you have used up all your batter making sure to grease the machine each time
- Serve with your favourite toppings
- Enjoy!!
