High Protein Oat Waffles with Cottage Cheese

Waffles get a healthy makeover with this high protein oat waffle recipe made with cottage cheese. Don’t let the fact that these are “healthy” scare you away - they are still fluffy and delicious just like traditional waffles but with more protein.
Prep Time5 minutes
Cook Time25 minutes
Total Time30 minutes
Servings: 5 waffles

Equipment

  • Small blender like a Nutribullet
  • Waffle iron
  • Measuring cups

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cottage cheese low fat if desired
  • 3/4 cup oat flour or whole wheat flour
  • ⅓ cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon monkfruit or other sugar-free sweetener optional
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

  • Preheat your waffle iron.
  • Add all the ingredients to a blender and puree until smooth. Allow batter to rest for 5 minutes before making your first waffle - this gives the oat flour time to hydrate and you’ll notice the batter thickens as it sits.
  • Cook the waffles, adding about ¼ cup batter to the iron for each waffle. Cook for 5-6 minutes until golden brown. (Adjust according to your waffle maker.)
  • Serve with your favorite toppings.
