Stack of high protein waffles topped with yogurt and berries

High-Protein Waffles

Johnathan Flake
Light, crisp and ready in minutes, these cottage-cheese and oat waffles pack 45 g of protein per serving. Perfect for a filling breakfast that won’t weigh you down, they’re equally delicious sweet with Greek yogurt and berries or savory with avocado and a poached egg.

Equipment

  • high-speed blender
  • waffle iron
  • measuring cups & spoons
  • spatula or tongs

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder

Instructions
 

  • Add oats, cottage cheese, eggs and protein powder to a high-speed blender. Blend until completely smooth.
  • While the batter rests for a minute, preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s directions.
  • Pour enough batter onto the iron to cover (do not overfill). Cook 3–4 minutes, or until waffles are golden and crisp.
  • Lift carefully and serve hot with your favorite toppings.

Notes

If the batter seems thick, thin with a splash of milk or water. Bump the protein by adding an extra scoop of powder (add more liquid as needed). Cook extras for the freezer; reheat in the toaster for maximum crunch.
