Made with protein powder, egg, and Greek yogurt, these waffles are fluffy, nutritious, and perfect for topping with your favorite healthy accompaniments.

Ingredients

Waffle Batter

  • 39 grams Protein powder
  • 1 large Egg
  • 3 Tablespoons Plain Greek Yogurt or sour cream (45g)
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder
  • Pinch of salt

Toppings

  • Butter (optional)
  • Sugar-free syrup (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the waffle iron: Heat your waffle iron on medium heat and spray both plates thoroughly with cooking spray to prevent sticking. A mini dash waffle maker is recommended as it produces waffles similar in size and texture to Eggo waffles.
  2. Prepare the batter: In a large bowl, combine the protein powder, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir until evenly mixed. Add the egg and Greek yogurt or sour cream, then stir everything together until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
  3. Cook the waffle: Using a ladle or cup, pour the batter into the center of the bottom plate of the waffle maker, filling about three-quarters of the plate. Close the top plate; the pressure will help spread the batter evenly across the waffle iron.
  4. Check doneness: Cook the waffle thoroughly. If the waffle splits when you try to open the iron, it needs to cook longer. For a crispier texture, leave the waffle cooking a little past the indicator light turning off.
  5. Serve: Remove the waffle carefully and serve warm. Top with butter and sugar-free syrup or your favorite toppings for added flavor and enjoyment.

Notes

  • Use a mini dash waffle maker for best results to achieve Eggo-like waffles.
  • Ensure the waffle is fully cooked before removing to prevent breakage.
  • For extra crispiness, extend cooking time slightly beyond the indicator light.
  • You can substitute sour cream for Greek yogurt if preferred.
  • Serve with low-calorie or sugar-free toppings to keep the dish healthy.
