Hot Chocolate Protein Waffles Recipe

Hot Chocolate Protein Waffles Recipe

Breakfast doesn’t have to be healthy or delicious, you can have both!

These hot chocolate protein waffles give you 12 grams of protein per waffle and are such a chocolaty treat to enjoy with the whole family. As a bonus, they’re gluten-free too!

INGREDIENTS: – eggs – cottage cheese – non-dairy milk – coconut oil – peppermint extract – rolled oats – chocolate protein powder – hot cocoa mix – baking powder

Step 1: In a blender add the liquid whole eggs, cottage cheese, milk, oil, peppermint extract, oats, protein powder, hot cocoa mix, and baking powder.

STEP 2: Blend until the dry ingredients are fully mixed and blended into the wet ingredients. You can prep this in advance, too.

STEP 3: Preheat your waffle iron.  Pour batter, close the lid and allow the waffles to cook for 5-6 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy. Repeat with any remaining waffle batter.

STEP 4:  To make the optional protein drizzle, whisk together the melted coconut oil and protein powder.

STEP 5: Serve waffles with your favorite toppings, or try the chocolate protein drizzle, mini marshmallow, chocolate chips, and crushed candy canes for a tasty festive holiday breakfast!
