Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 scoop (30g) protein powder (flavor of choice)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- ½ cup brewed coffee (freshly made)
- 2 tbsp sweetener (honey or maple syrup)
Instructions
- Preheat Your Waffle Maker: Follow your waffle maker’s instructions for proper preheating.

- Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add milk and freshly brewed coffee. Stir until well combined.
- Combine Both Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir gently until just mixed; small lumps are acceptable as they contribute to fluffiness.
