Ingredients

• 1 cup gluten-free oat flour
• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together gluten-free oat flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Add almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil to the eggs, and whisk until well combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Step 5

Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray or brush with a little coconut oil.

Step 6

Pour enough batter onto the center of the waffle iron to just cover the surface. Close the lid and cook according to the waffle iron instructions, usually about 4-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp.

Step 7

Carefully remove the waffles and serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, extra maple syrup, or nut butter.

Step 8

Repeat with the remaining batter, ensuring you grease the waffle iron between batches to prevent sticking.
