Ever since I went to Belgium last summer I have been pretty obsessed with waffles. I don’t know how to make a legit Belgian waffle with the yeast dough and pear sugar, so I will just have to make do with these Blueberry Almond Protein Waffles.
I have started using some protein from a company called Xtend. They make some really great products including BCAA’s and this Xtend Pro protein powder. For this recipe, I used their Xtend Pro Vanilla Ice Cream for this one. I can see why they call the flavor vanilla ice cream, because it really tasted like vanilla ice cream!
For these waffles, I did one of my typical protein waffle recipes calling for protein powder, flour, egg, some milk and Greek yogurt, etc. I also blended up some almond butter into the batter. It’s optional, but quite tasty! Then, I added some blueberries to the batter because you can’t have blueberry waffles without blueberries right?
The recipe made 5 pretty large waffles. The nutrition calculation is for 1 waffle. If you want, you can eat a big stack of these waffles, or you can freeze them individually to have as a quick snack or on the go breakfast later. No matter how you eat them, you are sure to enjoy them!
After the fact, I may have even taken some extra almond butter and made a sandwich with two of the waffles. So good! And if you like these waffles, make sure to check out all my other waffle recipes here!
