Servings: 10 waffles
Calories: 90kcal
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups old-fashioned oats (or oat flour) 120g
- 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder 45g
- 1/2 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt 112g
- 4 egg whites¼ ~ 120g
- 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk 120ml
- 1 Tbsp. honey 21g
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/8 tsp. salt
Instructions
- Add the oats to a high-speed blender and pulse into a flour consistency. Alternatively, you can use oat flour.
- Add the oats, protein powder, yogurt, egg whites, almond milk, honey, baking powder and salt to a bowl and mix until fully combined. You should have a nice not too runny and not too thick batter.
- Heat a small single waffle maker and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Using a ¼ cup as a spoon, spoon the waffle mix into the hot waffle maker and close.
- Cook until fully cooked through and browned. Remove from the waffle maker and continue with all remaining waffles. Optional, toast them after to get them extra crispy.
- Top with sliced fruit, butter, real maple syrup and enjoy!
Notes
- Nutritional information is an estimate and will vary with substitutions.
- Mini waffles can get soggy quick, just toss them in the toaster to crisp up.
- I find the less you spray the waffle maker between waffles with nonstick spray the crispier they will get!
- If your batter is too thick add a splash of almond milk to your preferred consistency.

Use a single or Dash Mini Waffle Maker
TO OMIT PROTEIN POWDER:
- Use 1 ¾ cups oats and add 1 tsp. Vanilla extract.
- The recipe makes approximately 9 waffles without protein powder.
