Make these simple, high protein cottage cheese waffles using a blender for a quick and healthy breakfast. This recipe uses minimal ingredients and results in fluffy, low sugar waffles.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup oat flour (or almond flour for low carb)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Cooking spray or butter for the iron

Instructions

  1. Place the cottage cheese, eggs, oat flour, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt into a blender.
  2. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. This takes about 30 to 60 seconds. Scrape down the sides if necessary.
  3. Preheat your waffle iron and lightly coat it with cooking spray or butter.
  4. Pour the batter onto the hot waffle iron. Use the amount appropriate for your iron size, typically about 1/2 cup for a standard round iron.
  5. Cook according to your waffle iron’s directions until golden brown and crisp, usually 4 to 6 minutes.
  6. Remove the waffle carefully and serve immediately with your preferred healthy toppings.

Notes

  • For a crispier waffle, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
  • If you want a low carb cottage cheese waffle, substitute the oat flour with almond flour.
  • To make this recipe gluten free, ensure you use certified gluten free oat flour or almond flour.
  • If your batter seems too thick, add one tablespoon of water or milk until it pours easily.
