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

That’s a lot of carbs…how about almond meal or flax meal???
First rudi double fiber has 6 grams fiber add walnuts , honey, low fat cool whip and strawberries. Females need the extra fiber. Love French toast made the same as the waffles less prep.
Have you tried the waffles with Greek yogurt? I make our family pancakes and waffles with 1/2 Greek yogurt and 1/2 milk.
Nevermind…i didn’t see all the comments on that already. Sorry! Pancakes it is. 😉
Has anyone tried these as pancakes? I don’t have a waffle iron, but they sound great!
For those of you worried about the cottage cheese aspect of this recipe, you would never notice it! It blends up very nicely. I tasted the batter (always do, I’m a cookie dough girl) and even the batter was good with a touch of sweetness.
These were pretty good! Not as light and fluffy as my old recipe, but still tasty! And very filling. Thank you!
This sounds awesome, can’t wait to try it!!
Is it correct that they contain over 13 grams of fat? Seems like a lot.
Thank you for posting this delicious recepie is not complicated and so easy to make my four year old loved it.
