These Blender Banana Protein Waffles are a quick, nutritious, and delicious breakfast option made with oats, banana, and plant-based protein powder. Prepared effortlessly in a blender and cooked in a waffle iron, they offer a gluten-free and vegan-friendly choice perfect for busy mornings or meal prep.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup oats (or use oat flour, gluten-free if needed)
  • 1/4 cup plant-based vanilla protein powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 medium banana
  • 1/2 cup plant-based milk of choice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

For Cooking

  • Baking spray or coconut oil (to grease the waffle iron)

Instructions

  1. Preheat: Turn on your waffle iron while you prepare the batter, ensuring it’s hot and ready to cook the waffles evenly.
  2. Grind the oats: Place the oats into a food processor or chopper and blend until they become a fine oat flour, which will give the waffles a smoother texture.
  3. Blend batter: Add the banana, plant-based vanilla protein powder, plant milk, baking powder, vanilla extract (if using), and salt to the oat flour in the blender. Blend everything until the mixture is smooth and thick, forming your waffle batter.
  4. Bake: Lightly grease the waffle iron using baking spray or coconut oil applied with a paper towel. Spoon about 2 heaped tablespoons of batter into each square of your waffle iron. Cook the waffles for approximately 3 minutes or until they turn golden and crisp.
  5. Cool: Transfer the cooked waffles to a wire rack to cool completely if you prefer a crisper texture, or serve them warm immediately to enjoy their softness.
  6. Freeze (optional): Once cooled, place the waffles in a zip-top bag, pressing out as much air as possible to preserve freshness. Store in the freezer and reheat by defrosting them in a toaster for a convenient, ready-to-eat meal later on.

Notes

  • You can substitute oat flour directly if preferred or needed to avoid processing oats.
  • Use any plant-based milk like almond, oat, or soy milk depending on your taste and dietary preferences.
  • Vanilla extract is optional but enhances the flavor of the waffles.
  • For extra crispiness, allow waffles to cool on a wire rack to avoid sogginess from steam.
  • Freezing the waffles makes for easy meal prep and quick breakfasts during busy days.
