Hey all! I did a little meal prepping this morning and figured I'd share these quick and easy protein waffles. Make a batch for breakfast or double it up for extras throughout the week. Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to a week. If you don't have a waffle maker, this batter works just fine for pancakes as well.
Lets get to it...
INGREDIENTS
1 cup Kodiak Cakes (or rolled oats)
1 scoop Vanilla Protein Powder
1 cup Almond Milk
1 Egg
Cooking Spray
Cinnamon
Optional Toppings
Mini Bittersweet Chocolate Chips
Peanut Butter - I used low fat peanut butter powder mixed with water
Banana slices or Berries
Sugar Free Syrup
PREP
In a large mixing bowl, add kodiak cakes, protein powder, a dash of cinnamon and mix with a whisk.
Add almond milk, egg and combine well.
Heat a waffle maker. I use this mini dash 4" waffle maker.
Spray waffle maker with oil spray of choice and add batter.
*For the mini maker, I use about 1/3 cup of batter per waffle.
Repeat process until done. Serve as is or continue to the bonus (my personal favorite).
Bonus ~ If you have a bit of sweet tooth like me, add a few mini bittersweet chocolate chips to the batter. I sprinkle a few on top of the batter before closing the waffle maker. Instead of syrup, I mix 2 tablespoons of peanut butter pwder with 1.5 tablespoons of water and drizzle on top of the waffles. I use half of the PB mixture for an additional 2.5g of protein.
