Protein Banana Waffles

Before we get to the recipe for these fantastic waffles, I just want to emphasize that this recipe works equally well for pancakes; in fact, it's the recipe I use most for my breakfasts. Besides being a super easy and versatile recipe, as it goes with any topping, it's with no added sugar and very simple.

Why will you love this recipe?

• You can use it for pancakes or microwave cake
• No added sugar or fat
• It's rich in protein
• Pairs well with various toppings

For the pancakes/waffles you need:

• Egg and egg whites
• Banana
• Oat flakes
• Cinnamon
• Coconut flour
• Vanilla yummy drops (optional)

Can I substitute the egg whites?

Yes, of course. You can use 100ml of plant-based drink or milk, or another egg and 50ml of plant-based drink.

I don't have oat flakes, now what?

You can use oat flour or another of your choice. Oat flakes help the batter be a bit denser.

Coconut flour, why?

You can remove this ingredient; however, it's fundamental to give density to the recipe, making the waffles very fluffy.

Can I substitute the banana?

Yes, you can use another fruit. The banana helps significantly in keeping the recipe from becoming dry, without needing fat.

Secret for the waffles not to stick to the machine

1. The batter cannot be too liquid.
2. The machine must be very hot and properly greased.

Ingredients

• 1 egg
• 100g egg whites
• 50g oat flakes
• 1 small ripe banana
• 1 dessert spoon coconut flour
• 1 cinnamon to taste
• 10 vanilla yummy drops (optional)

Preparation

1. First step

   In a blender, add all ingredients except the coconut flour.

2. Second step

   Blend everything well until it forms a homogeneous batter.

   Add the coconut flour, mix, and let it rest for one or two minutes.

4. Fourth step

   In the meantime, turn on the waffle maker and let it heat up well.

5. Fifth step

   Put a little coconut oil and brush. It prevents the waffle from sticking.
