Peanut Butter Waffles are high-protein while being soft and fluffy! Made with whole-wheat flour, peanut butter powder, Greek yogurt and more for a filling breakfast.
Peanut Butter Waffles are a new family favorite! I’ve been looking for a filling waffle or pancake recipe that my family is crazy for and this is it. These are probably the most filling waffles you will ever eat which I love because my kids smother them with syrup so at least I know that they’re getting some awesome nutrition in the waffles.
Peanut Butter Waffles Ingredients
- Naked Nutrition Organic Powdered Peanut Butter– I love cooking with peanut butter powder! It is excellent in baked goods and Asian-inspired recipes. This peanut butter powder adds 8 grams of protein per scoop (a 2.4 tablespoons serving). This Organic Naked PB has only one ingredient- organic roasted peanuts, has no salt or sugar added and adds a ton of flavor to your recipe. I love adding it to smoothies as well for a peanut butter banana or peanut butter and jelly smoothie!
- White-whole wheat flour
- Baking powder
- Salt
- Cinnamon
- Brown sugar
- Whole-milk Greek yogurt- nonfat will work as well
- Apple cider vinegar– since I didn’t use buttermilk in this recipe, adding the vinegar makes the milk similar to buttermilk. Don’t worry, you won’t taste it.
- Eggs
- 2% milk (or any milk of choice)
- Vanilla extract
How to Make Peanut Butter Waffles
Making peanut butter waffles is super easy! Just mix together your dry ingredients in a large bowl, whisk together your wet ingredients and then mix them together. Cook the batter in your waffle iron until crispy. I used white-whole wheat flour for extra fiber which works really well in this recipe. Typical waffle recipes call for butter, oil or coconut oil but I challenged myself to use Greek yogurt and I think that they turned out awesome!
Peanut Butter Waffles Nutrition
You will not be hungry after eating these peanut butter waffles. I typically do not calculate the nutrition facts on my recipes but after using peanut butter powder, whole-wheat flour, milk, eggs and Greek yogurt, I had to know how much protein was in these waffles. One serving of peanut butter waffles has 214 calories, 15 grams of protein and 3.5 grams of fiber. An amazing breakfast choice in my opinion. I am going to make these often and freeze them for my kids for school days.
Yield: 6-7 waffles
