Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup Milk kefir
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup naked whey protein
  • 1-2 tsp inulin powder
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp melted butter or coconut oil
  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla or just measure with heart

Instructions
 

  • Preheat waffle iron
  • Mix kefir, egg, melted butter, maple syrup, vanilla
  • Add Flour, whey protein, inulin, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Stir gently until just combined
  • Protein powder thickens batter, so add 1–3 tbsp milk or water if needed
  • You want a pourable batter, not thick dough
  • Let it rest for 5-10 mins
  • Lightly grease the iron. Cook a bit longer than normal (protein waffles brown faster but need time to firm up).

Notes

  • This recipe makes about 3-4 large waffles, depending on the size of your waffle maker. Using a larger waffle iron may result in one smaller waffle at the end.
