Easy to make protein waffles

This simple receipe of protein waffles was made while experimenting in the kitchen. You should be able to make ~8 waffles.
















Ingredients:

  • 2 Eggs
  • 3 table spoons Splenda
  • 80 g/2.4 dl neutral taste protein powder (I use a blend of whey, casein and egg)
  • 5 dl water
  • 5 table spoons spelt flour
  • 1 tea spoon baking powder
  • 2 table spoons healthy oil

Instructions:
Mix eggs and splenda. Make a shake of protein powder and all the water. You should not use flavored protein as it contains aspartame which should not be heated. Mix the shake with the egg mix. Add flour, baking powder and oil. Keep it in the fridge until beeing used after mixing the ingredients well. Cook it in the waffle iron. Stirred berries (strawberries, raspberries etc) and splenda makes a perfect combo.

Impressions afterwards:
The waffles taste ok, but can be improved. They are lacking a bit of fullness due to low fat content. I think the fullness fill improve if using skimmed milk instead of water and/or using wheat instead of spelt.
