Most waffle recipes call for melted butter, added sugar, and leavening ingredients like baking power and baking soda. This revamped waffle recipe focuses on high protein ingredients like eggs, low-fat cottage cheese, and ground flax seeds that get blended up with rolled oats and a splash of vanilla extract to create a seriously good and good-for-you waffle.

Cottage Cheese Oat Waffles

 4 large eggs
 2 cups cottage cheese (low-fat)
 2 tablespoons flaxseed (ground)
 1/4 cup water
 2 cups rolled oats
 1/2 teaspoon vanilla (or almond extract)
1

Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until evenly mixed and smooth.

3

Heat a waffle iron.

5

Lightly coat with oil or spray with non-stick spray. Place a heaping 1/2 cup full of batter onto the waffle iron and cook 4-5 minutes until golden brown and crisp.

7

Repeat with remaining batter. You should have 4 waffles at the end.
