Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter or vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pumpkin puree (optional, for extra pumpkin flavor)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, protein powder, sugar, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, Greek yogurt, melted butter or oil, and vanilla extract. If using, stir in pumpkin puree.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Lightly grease the waffle iron if needed. Pour about 1/2 cup of batter onto the hot waffle iron.
  6. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  8. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.

Notes

  • For crispier waffles, you can let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking.
  • Adjust the amount of pumpkin pie spice to your preference.
  • You can substitute almond milk or soy milk for regular milk.
  • For a vegan option, use a plant-based protein powder and a dairy-free yogurt alternative.
