Begin by washing the Brussels sprouts thoroughly and trimming off the ends. Using a food processor or box grater, shred the Brussels sprouts finely.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, whey protein powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk the dry ingredients together until well blended.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Add the milk, melted butter, and whisk until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Avoid over-mixing the batter as it can make the waffles tough.
Gently fold in the shredded Brussels sprouts, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Brush the iron lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Spoon an appropriate amount of batter onto the waffle iron, spreading it evenly. Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes depending on your waffle iron.
Carefully remove the cooked waffles and repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles warm, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese or parsley if desired. Enjoy your high protein Brussels waffle!
