Amazing high protein waffles, 40g power

Q: How do I make these waffles gluten-free?

It’s pretty straightforward to make these protein waffles recipe gluten-free! The easiest swap is to use a good all-purpose gluten-free flour blend in place of the regular all-purpose flour. Make sure the blend has a binder like xanthan gum. You might use a little less liquid, or a bit more, depending on the blend, so start with slightly less milk and add as needed until you get that nice batter consistency. You'll still get all that delicious protein!

Q: What's the best way to store leftover high protein waffles?

This is key for making your meal prep waffles actually work! Once they're completely cool, store them in an airtight container or a good quality freezer bag. For the fridge, they’ll usually last a good 3-4 days. If you’re freezing them, stacking them with parchment paper in between or freezing them flat on a tray first before bagging helps prevent them from sticking into one giant waffle brick. They reheat beautifully in the toaster!

Question 1

Can I use different types of protein powder for these protein waffles?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! While I love vanilla whey for its classic taste, feel free to experiment. Plant-based protein powders work well too, but they can sometimes absorb liquid differently, so you might need to adjust the milk or liquid a little. Just remember, a good quality powder that doesn't have *too* much extra stuff in it will give you the best results. You might not get quite the same fluffiness with some, but the protein boost is still there!
