Make It Monday: Clean Eating Oat Protein Waffles


Waffles are such a comfort food, but they can easily be cleaned up and pumped up and then topped with your favorite fruits or real maple syrup. These are very filling and you will be surprised that you eat less of these than you would traditional waffles.

Clean Eating Oat Protein Waffles 

1 C oat flour
1/2 C whole wheat flour
1/2 C what germ
1 scoop vanilla protein shake mix
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
4 egg whites
1/4 C coconut oil
1 3/4 C milk (your preference)

Directions:
Mix all ingredients until blended. Bake in your waffle maker per manufacturer's instructions. Makes about 10 4" square waffles. Enjoy!

We make all kinds of waffles. Thanks for a great recipe to add to our list. With two teenage sons, protein is always welcome. :)

I actually got a waffle iron as a gift very recently! The only recipe I have is a whole wheat concoction and it's pretty good, but I'm trying to up my protein intake for this pregnancy to feel fuller longer, so thanks for sharing!

I never thought about using protein shake powder in waffle batter. I need to put some in next time :)

My friend makes protein pancakes in a similar way. I have been meaning to try it. Protein at breakfast is so important. Pinned it.
