Instructions
Make the batter:
In a large bowl, combine the flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt.
Make a well in the middle and pour the milk, eggs, butter, and vanilla (if using). Break up the eggs with a fork first, then incorporate them into the other liquid ingredients (you could do this in a separate bowl, but why dirty another thing). Mix the batter, working the dry ingredients from the outside-of-the-bowl-in, until there are no visible lumps.
Cook:
Heat the waffle maker and grease it with oil if needed. Once hot, pour enough waffle batter to fill the space most of the way -the batter will expand. Close the waffle maker and cook the waffle until the color is golden brown and lifts easily. Remove each waffle from the waffle maker and repeat the process with the remaining batter.If using a mini waffle maker (the ones that make one waffle at a time like the one in this post), pour ¼ cup per waffle).
Serve:
Serve these waffles with your favorite toppings and syrups.
Notes
Each waffle has 10g of protein, which is twice that of a frozen protein Eggo waffle (5g ea).
I'm using protein powder with 25g per scoop; if yours has more per scoop, your waffles will have more protein.
