Banana Protein Waffles ~ GF & Plant Based
These banana protein waffles are healthy, low sugar, and fat-free. That’s just what I need; plus, with the high protein and fiber, that’s a recipe to get excited about!
Wake up to some high protein banana waffles. These quick and easy waffles are mixed up in a blender all at once. So you can be sitting down to some hot fresh waffles in less than 15 minutes.
If you are short on time in the morning, these waffles are the perfect “go-to” breakfast. Just freeze a batch and, in the mornings, reheat them in the toaster or microwave. I prefer the toaster for a crunchier waffle.
Each waffle has a total of 7.7 grams of protein and almost 4.4 grams of healthy fiber.
If you count Weight Watcher points plus add 4 points per waffle.
Half a waffle is a great snack for just 2 points with a piece of fruit.
I make several batches at once and freeze them. Place wax paper in between each waffle inside a freezer bag.
A great way to eat your oats! Enjoy!
