Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 scoop vanilla protein powder

1 mashed ripe banana

1/2 cup Greek yogurt

1/4 cup almond milk (or any milk of choice)

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Optional toppings: fresh berries, honey, nut butter

Instructions
 

In a blender or food processor, combine the rolled oats, protein powder, mashed banana, Greek yogurt, almond milk, baking powder, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until the mixture is smooth and resembles a thick batter.

    Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

      Lightly grease the waffle iron with a small amount of cooking spray or oil to prevent sticking.

        Pour an appropriate amount of the batter (about 1/2 cup, depending on the size of your waffle iron) onto the center of the preheated waffle iron. Close the lid and cook for about 3-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp.

          Carefully remove the waffle and repeat the process with the remaining batter.

            Serve the waffles warm, topped with fresh berries, a drizzle of honey, or a spoonful of your favorite nut butter for added flavor and nutrition.
