Equipment
Ingredients
- 480 g liquid egg whites
- 480 g low-fat 1–2% cottage cheese
- 240 g quick oats
- 1 tsp baking powder
- Cinnamon to taste, 1-2 teaspoons
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Add egg whites, cottage cheese, and oats to a blender.
- Add baking powder, cinnamon, and vanilla.
- Blend until smooth (40–60 seconds).
- Lightly oil a preheated waffle maker. I use just a spritz of spray oil. I use a non-stick waffle iron as well. You may need to do this between cooking each waffle, depending on your waffle maker.
- Pour batter into the waffle maker and cook until golden (about 2-4 minutes, depending on your waffle maker).
- Repeat until all batter is used (about 7 large waffles). One serving is 1 waffle. If you're tracking macros/calories, weigh all the final waffles and then add this total amount to your tracking app for the final weight and "7 servings" or however many waffles you made. This is how your app will calculate the macros/calories for each serving you later eat. When eating a waffle, weigh out the portion you eat and the app will naturally figure out the calories/macros you consumed based on the weight you enter.
