In this vegan protein waffle recipe, we show you how to turn these delicious waffles into a delicious waffle Plant-based protein powerhouse — no protein powder needed!
To make these breakfast waffles healthy and high in protein, we used 5 healthy ingredients:
-
almond flour
-
whole wheat flour
-
silken tofu
-
hemp seeds
-
Soy milk
Almond flour and whole wheat flour enter balanced mixture of proteins and fiber while adding flavor and helping the waffle batter hold together.
Silken tofu and soy milk are two soy products that are incredibly high in protein. Silken tofu is also a wonderful egg substitute for vegan waffle batter, while soy milk helps keep it free-flowing.
Hemp seeds have the highest amount of protein of any seed and also contain healthy fats and omega-3 fatty acids.
If you can’t find hemp seeds, you can substitute flaxseed or chia seeds, which are also high in protein.
When you put all of these ingredients together, you get high-protein waffles that pack a punch a whopping 17g of protein per serving.
That is a third of your daily protein needs of only two waffle corners!
All without using protein powders or rely on eggs! Plus, you get all the nutrients and health benefits that soy, nuts, and seeds offer.
