Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 scoop vanilla protein powder

1 ripe banana, mashed

1 large egg

1/2 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Pinch of salt

1/2 cup mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries)

Optional toppings: Greek yogurt, maple syrup, more berries, nut butter

Instructions
 

Prepare the Oats: In a blender or food processor, blend the rolled oats until they form a fine flour. This oat flour will be the base of your protein waffle batter.

    Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until well combined.

      Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth. Add the egg and almond milk to the mashed banana and mix until fully incorporated.

        Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay!

          Fold in Berries: Gently fold in the mixed berries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

            Preheat Waffle Maker: Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. If needed, lightly grease with a non-stick cooking spray.

              Cook the Waffles: Pour the appropriate amount of batter (usually about 1/2 to 3/4 cup depending on your waffle maker) into the preheated waffle maker. Close the lid and cook for 4-5 minutes or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp.

                Serve Warm: Carefully remove the waffles from the waffle maker. Serve immediately with your choice of toppings like Greek yogurt, a drizzle of maple syrup, or extra berries.

                  Enjoy! Indulge in these delicious high-protein waffles that can kick off your day with a nutritious boost or serve as a healthy snack.
