Instructions
Make a Flax 'Egg': Mix 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed with 2.5 tablespoons water and let sit for 5 - 10 minutes until thickened.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Mix together well.
Add liquid Ingredients: Add milk, melted vegan butter, vanilla extract, and the flax egg. Mix well.
Cook the Waffles: Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it with oil or cooking spray. Don't skip this step or it may stick. Pour the batter onto the waffle iron (the amount depends on your waffle maker) and cook according to the manufacturer’s instructions until golden.
Serve: Top your waffles with fresh fruit, nut butter, maple syrup, or a dollop of vegan yogurt for extra indulgence.

Notes
Nutritional information is only an estimate.*If your protein powder is unsweetened, consider adding 2 tablespoons of sweetener. If you don’t have oat flour, it’s easy to make at home by blending rolled oats into a fine powder using a blender or food processor.Note that this recipe makes a softer waffle compared to those made with traditional ingredients. To achieve a crispier outside, ensure your waffle iron is fully preheated, lightly grease the waffle iron with oil, and cook the waffles slightly longer than the indicator suggests.
