Red Velvet Patriotic Protein Waffle Stack

Cook: 30 min
Total: 30 min

Ingredients

  • 1 scoop grass-fed whey isolate protein powder
  • 3 egg whites
  • 1/3 cup oat flour (or oatmeal ground into flour using a blender or food processor)
  • 1/3 cup cooked beets, steamed and cooled
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tbsp raw cacao powder

This waffke batter is great with a lower calorie syrup or raw, organic honey.  But in case you want to continue with the red velvet theme, here are the ingredients to make the cream (optional):

  •  1 cup 2% Fage Greek yogurt
  • 1 oz reduced fat cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup raw shredded coconut (optional)

Steps

Step 1

In a food processor or mini-blender, add all of the ingredients for the waffle batter.  If you cannot find cooked beets in your local grocery store, simply purchase raw beets and steam them for about 30 minutes until they are soft.  Allow them to cool before adding to the batter. Pulse blend all of the ingredients until you have a thick, bright red mixture.

Step 2

Set your waffle iron or mini-waffle skillet to medium-high heat. If you do not have a non-stick coating, you’ll need to spray the pan or iron with baking spray or coconut oil.

Step 3

Cook the waffles to desired readiness and serve immediately!
