Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 2 cups cottage cheese
- 2 cups old fashioned oats
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Equipment
Instructions
- Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the top and bottom of the waffle iron or coat with nonstick spray.
- Combine eggs, cottage cheese, oats, vanilla and salt in blender until smooth.
- Pour a scant 1/2 cup of the egg mixture into the waffle iron, close gently and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
- Make it gluten-free. Substitute with gluten-free old fashioned rolled oats.
- Preheat the waffle iron. This will ensure even cooking for a crisp, well-browned waffle while keeping the insides fluffy.
- Increase the protein. Top with your favorite nut butter, Greek yogurt or bananas. Want it Elvis style? Add peanut butter, bananas and crispy bacon!
- Mix it up. Add berries, chocolate chips or nuts to the batter.
- Freeze as needed. Protein waffles freeze very well, keeping in the freezer for up to 2 months, perfect for quick breakfasts on-the-go (or dinners!).
