Yup, you read that correctly. Powell approved waffles that you can eat every day! This tasty breakfast is not only a winner with adults and kids, but it is packed with protein – the perfect way to start every day.
A HUGE thanks to our good friend, Ammon Woods, for lending this yummy recipe to post! I know y’all will LOVE this :).
Protein Waffles
Serves 2
Ingredients:
1/2 cup cottage cheese
2 eggs
1/2 cup water
2 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/3 cup oatmeal, instant or regular
1 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions:
Put oatmeal and baking powder in food processor or blender and process until powdered.
In a food processor, blend cottage cheese, eggs, water, vanilla, and olive oil until smooth.
Mix the dry and wet ingredients to form a batter.
As the mixture stands it will thicken, and it may be necessary to add more water (a tablespoon at a time), to a get smooth, not lumpy, consistency.
Cook in a waffle iron according to the iron’s specifications. My waffles take about 4 minutes each.

You can also drizzle with honey or sugar free maple syrup. I top mine with 2 tbsp of coconut whipped cream, which adds an additional 60 cal, 5.2g fat, .8 carbs, and .8 protein

Now to stock up on certified GF oats 🙂
Yum! Wish it was dairy free but I love that it’s a whole food recipe 🙂
Are these considered low carb or high Carb?
Love this idea, I am struggling with breakfast foods that I can eat that wont increase my blood sugar levels! Thank you for the post!
My kids are allergic to milk products. What can I use in place of the cottage cheese? Thanks!
The nutritional info doesn’t list salt. Since my husband had a mild heart attack he was told not to eat cottage cheese (one of his favs) because of the sodium. I want to try this. Thanks Katrina for the modifications, I will give that a try.
I am SO excited to try these!! Thank you!! Xo
I would love to try these but I’m lactose intolerant. What can I use instead of cottage cheese?
How many of these would make a serving for those of us carb-cycling?
Is the nutritional data for one waffle or two?
