Greek Yogurt Protein Waffles

These Greek Yogurt Protein Waffles are such a fun and delicious way to pack extra protein into your breakfast. This recipe makes 6 waffles (3 servings). There are only 182 calories a serving with 19 grams of protein! The Greek yogurt makes these waffles so unbelievably fluffy and they melt right in your mouth. I love replacing oils & butters with Greek yogurt because it adds protein and reduces the calories so much!

What You Will Need

Waffle Maker- I use the Dash Deluxe Belgian Waffle Maker.
Flour - 3/4 cup of either all-purpose or oat flour. The macros below are assuming all-purpose flour.
Protein Powder - 30 grams of vanilla flavored protein powder. I used the Prozis Zero Diet Vanilla Protein Powder. I love this protein powder because there is no fat or sugar in it and it's packed with vitamins! You can use the code "KATIE10" for 10% off as well!
Brown Swerve - You can use any sweetener of choice or none at all (I used 1 tablespoon). I personally love Swerve because it is a zero-calorie, low-glycemic sweetener that measures cup-for-cup to sugar. It’s completely safe and natural, with no artificial ingredients, preservatives or flavors. You can purchase Brown Swerve off of Amazon here.
Baking Powder- 1 teaspoon.
Cinnamon - 1/2 teaspoon for flavor, or to taste.
Salt - 1/4 teaspoon, for flavor.
Vanilla Extract - 1 teaspoon, for flavor.
Greek Yogurt - 3/4 cup of plain, nonfat Greek yogurt. This is the key ingredient to getting the most moist & fluffy cake!
Egg Whites- 3 tablespoons for added protein and fluffiness!
Almond Milk - 1/2 cup of unsweetened vanilla almond milk.

How To Make Them

Whisk the dry ingredients into your wet ingredients until fully incorporated.
Divide your batter into 6 and pour into your waffle maker. Cook the waffles for about 4 minutes, or until fully cooked.
Serve with some syrup such as this one and enjoy!!

How To Store Leftovers

Store your leftover Greek Yogurt Protein Waffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To reheat them, just pop them in the microwave for 20-30 seconds.

Can You Freeze These?

You can certainly make a whole bunch of these in bulk and then freeze them to enjoy over a week or so! The best way to freeze these waffles is to first make sure they are completely cooled. Then wrap each waffle individually in plastic wrap. This will help them not get freezer burn! Place the individually wrapped waffles in a plastic bag or Tupperware and freeze away! Microwave them for a minute when you are ready to enjoy them again.

Why Is Consuming Protein Important?

Protein is nutrient-rich, so it helps you stay fuller longer. You are more likely to eat less when you have high protein meals because you won’t have the munchies!
It boosts your metabolism & increases fat burning.
It increases muscles & strength. If you are lifting weights and not eating enough protein, you aren’t going to see much of a difference!
It lowers your blood pressure.
