To say I’m obsessed with these Protein Waffles is an understatement. I love that they’re healthier, but taste just as good as my famous Belgian Waffles. And we’re talking 22 grams of protein and only 230 calories! Plus, they only take 10 minutes to make; practical enough for school mornings, or post-workout breakfast.

I’ve had so much fun creating new high protein recipes like this one, for our Macro recipes page, and our Macro E-books, so check those out too!

Loved these! It felt good to actually make waffle batter vs. tossing a couple of frozen ones into the toaster. Was so easy to make and had all ingredient on-hand. The end result was very good! These will become a regular in our day-to-day. Highly recommend. Thank you!
