Ingredients
- 1 cup oat flour
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 large egg
- 0.25 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0 cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Mix well to distribute the ingredients evenly.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Step 3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Step 4
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once heated, lightly coat the waffle iron plates with cooking spray.
Step 5
Scoop a portion of the batter onto the hot waffle iron (amount will depend on the size of your waffle iron) and close the lid.
Step 6
Cook the waffles until golden brown and crisp, typically about 4-5 minutes, depending on your waffle iron.
Step 7
Carefully remove the waffles and repeat with remaining batter, ensuring to spray the waffle iron before adding new batter each time.
Step 8
Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, yogurt, or maple syrup, if desired.
