Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup white whole wheat flour (150 grams)
- 1 coop Cellucor Whipped Vanilla whey protein (32 grams)
- 1 coop Dymatize Elite Casein Protein Powder (33 grams)
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- Pinch salt
- 1 1/4 cups blueberries, frozen or fresh (185 grams)
- 1 1/4 cup low fat (1%) buttermilk (10 fl oz)
- 1 cup unsweetened applesauce (246 grams)
- 1 tbsp light brown sugar (12 grams)
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (1 1/2 oz)
- 2 eggs
- 2 egg whites
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Pre-heat waffle iron to medium-high heat (I set mine to about 5 out of 6).
- In a small bowl, whisk wet ingredients (except blueberries) together until smooth.
- In a larger bowl, mix all dry ingredients, then add mixed wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in blueberries.
- Spray waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray. Pour 1/5 of waffle batter into waffle iron (~1/2 cup), flip waffle maker to other side and repeat. Cook for about 4 minutes or until waffle is cooked through (depending on your waffle maker, it will beep when it's ready). Repeat with final waffle.
- Serve waffles with maple syrup, butter, and fruit, if desired.
