Start your day off right with these nutrition packed high protein waffles. They’re so easy to make and all done in your blender and now you’ll be able to meal-prep them so you can start off your day right every day of the week. Waffles are seriously one of my favorite breakfast ever but because regular waffles are considered “unhealthy” I’ve managed to find a way to have my waffles and enjoy them too. They say Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and a high protein breakfast can help aid weight loss and boost energy levels.
These high protein waffles are low-in carbs, fat and high in protein so they’re the perfect balanced breakfast. Top them with berries and a few teaspoons of almond butter, Greek yogurt or real maple syrup and enjoy this tasty breakfast all week long!
Meal-Prep Protein Waffles
Ingredients
- 1 cup old fashion oats
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extra
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- For meal prepping, optional
- 1 cup berries
- 1/2 cup almond butter, Greek yogurt or maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat a waffle iron and lightly coat it with a nonstick spray.
- Place oats, cottage cheese, eggs, honey, vanilla, and baking powder in a blender and blend until smooth.
- Pour 1/2 cup (more or less depending on your waffle iron) onto waffle iron and cook until waffle iron turns off. Repeat until all the batter is finished.

I have not done the recipe yet, because I am building my workout meal plans but I have calculated all the macros:
The whole recipe is 801 calories for the ingredients
55.8 g of protein
30.1 g of fat
66.4 g of carbs
So divide the total calories and macros values by however many waffles this will make and you will get your values for one waffle.
Updating back, because I have made the recipe this morning. It is delicious 😋 but one downside it’s quite thick to pour on the iron, and it only made 2 1/2 waffles.
Where is the nutrition information for the protein waffle recipe?
I know many asking about calories. I dont see the answer. Would you please send me email calorie info per waffle or waffles plus fruits per box. Ty
Love it!!!
This is a fantastic recipe! I was really surprised how good they tasted especially when u look at the ingredients . My 4 year old also loves them!
Is 261 calories for whole waffle or 1/4 of one whole waffle? Thx
Is 261 calories for one whole waffle or 1/4 of a whole waffle?? Thx Dianne
When you say 1 waffle = 261 calories is that the 2 pieces in one container or a total of 4 pieces?
Hi! What would you recommend as a non dairy substitute for cottage cheese?
Delicious but would like nutritional value – especially how much protein. This made 4 waffles
