Chocolate protein low carb waffles

Published on by Margit2 kommentaari

An improved version of my protein waffles. Still grain-free, sugar-free and dairy-free. Makes 2,5 normal sized waffles of 2 big waffles.

 

 

What do you need?

  • 25 grams of protein powder

  • 2 eggs

  • 10 grams of oil or melted butter

  • 5 grams of dark cocoa powder (could be omitted if making a vanilla version)

  • 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder

  • water 

  • sweetener

  • cinnamon, pumpkin spice or gingerbread spice (optional)

  • vanilla or almond or orange extract (optional)

 

How to make them?

Get your waffle maker preheating at high heat.

Whisk up your eggs well. Add protein powder and mix really well until there are no lumps. Now add in cocoa powder, baking powder and the oil or melted butter (and also the extracts or seasonings you might want). Mix well. Start adding water teaspoon at a time until you have a normal waffle/pancake bater consistency. Taste the bater: if it needs to be sweeter, add some sweetener to your taste.

Pour some bater (about) into your waffle maker and cook until crispy and cooked, it really depends on what kind of waffle maker you are using. You can get 2 thicker waffles or 2,5 thinner waffles from this recipe.

 

Serve as is, with melted chocolate, berries, nuts, whipped cream, nut butter, ricotta cream, cream cheese or whatever else you can imagine.

Enjoy!

The whole recipe is 370 kcal, 36 g of protein, 4 g of total carbs, 23 g of fat.

My blog was featured on the main page of eestiblogid.ee

Today I got a lovely e-mail from eestiblogid.ee. It’s a website that collects together all Estonian blogs from all different categories. Every month they bring out 4 blogs on their main page that they think are especially interesting and worth sharing.

This month (December 2013) my blog got featured! 🙂

From the e-mail I got:

Iga kuu toome me eraldi välja neli uut blogi, mis meie arvates on eriti põnevad ning esitleme neid oma veebisaidi avalehel. Teie blogi on valitud blogide seas detsembris 2013.
 

I’m actually so happy right now. I feel it’s my mission to spread the word about LCHF and low carb lifestyles in general and also emphasize the importance of workouts. I’m all about promoting healthy and sustainable lifestyle and getting featured on the main page of eestiblogid.ee helps me do that even more. It’s not a huge step but it’s something really special to me.

Now I have a chance to send them one blog of who should be on the main page next month in my spot. I’m going to have to think really hard and decide on one blog but there are so many good ones that deserve the spotlight. 

Such a good day! 🙂
