Clean Eating Protein Waffles

As I write this, it’s Saturday morning at 8:09am. My little guy wanted to get in the kitchen with me, so I thought we would uphold our Saturday morning ritual of either pancakes or waffles.

My husband left the pan I use for pancakes sitting dirty on the stove from last night, and frankly, I’m just to lazy on a Saturday morning to do dishes BEFORE I cook. So the waffles won.

I’ve really been on a good routine with going to the gym every day and sticking to my clean eating plan. I didn’t want to ruin it with just any ol’ waffle recipe. So I came up with this one.

Leave a comment below if you have any ideas for increasing the protein content. I’d really love to add even more protein to these.

Munchkin Helpers:

If you have little ones, here’s how they can help (With close supervision, of course).

Let your kids measure the ingredients into the mixing bowl. Kids with enough dexterity can use a whisk to help mix everything.

Let them top their own waffles!

Caution: Any time a child is in the kitchen, they will require close supervision. Munchkin Helpers suggestions should be applied with common sense to your own child, taking their own capabilities into account. Do not assume that because it says here that your child can do something, that they can, in fact do it. Please use common sense when in the kitchen with your child(ren).
