Notes
This recipe uses vegan protein powder, which absorbs a lot of liquid. If you don't want to use a vegan protein powder, replace it with 1/3 cup of gluten free flour.
To keep the waffles warm (if you are making more than one), heat your oven to 250F to keep it warm.
If you want to make multiple batches of waffles to freeze for the week:
- Allow the waffles to cool. Wrap the waffles in plastic wrap and then foil or store in a airtight bag.
- To defrost, defrost in the fridge (overnight) or on the counter (10-20 minutes)
- Reheat in the toaster oven (4-5 minutes) or in the microwave (1 minute).
