Ingredients (1 serving)
- 1.5 scoops of Metagenics protein powder (or 1 scoop of protein powder of your choice, such as ATP)
- 2 egg whites or ¼ cup of egg whites
- ½ teaspoon baking powder (optional)
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp liquid vanilla extract. You can also use orange blossom water or almond extract.
Toppings of your choice: raspberry-chia jam, Greek yogurt, almond butter, fruit, coconut flakes, cocoa, chia seeds, dark chocolate shavings …
Instructions:
- Preheat the waffle iron.
- Mix all the ingredients in a small bowl until the batter is smooth.
- Grease the waffle iron with a little coconut oil.
- Pour the mixture onto the waffle iron and use the back of your spoon to spread the batter evenly (just enough to cover the grid).
- Close and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Adjust cooking time according to taste and desired texture.
- Add toppings of your choice.
Note: plant-based protein powders tolerate heat better than animal-based protein powders
