IRON MAN Chocolate Protein Waffles!

This is an extra healthy twist on the original Iron Man Waffles recipe I created, loaded with Iron. This time, I wanted to make them chocolate flavour with added protein and less carbohydrate. So, I have tweaked the ingredients a little and have come up with these. The texture is very different to a waffle texture, they are not very sweet, which is good because if you need them any sweeter, you can just add your own maple syrup or sugar on top.

I added sweetness by topping with a few strawberries and drizzling with a little melted dark chocolate. I reckon this would be a perfect combination with this Simply Nourishing Avocado Chocolate Smoothie Recipe.

IRON MAN CHOCOLATE PROTEIN WAFFLES

1/ Turn your waffle maker on and if you need to grease it first, make sure that you do!

2/ In a small jug pour in:

 3 x cups of Almond Breeze Unsweetened Milk 

 3 x teaspoons of  Biona Apple Cider Vinegar with Mother.

3/ Into a large jug mix the following dry ingredients:

1/2 a cup of Nairns Gluten Free Porridge Oats
1/2 a cup of Pulsin Rice Protein Powder
1/2 a cup of Essential Cocoa

1 x cups of Clearspring Organic Buckwheat Flour

1 and a 1/2 teaspoons of Doves Farm Gluten Free Baking Powder

1 teaspoon of Cinnamon

2 x teaspoons of Ginger

Pinch of salt.

4/ Into the smaller jug with the almond milk mixture inside, mix in the following:

1 x tablespoons of Meridian Blackstrap Molasses  

1 x Tablespoon of Meridian Dark Tahini

3 x Tablespoons of melted Biona Coconut Oil

3 x Tablespoons of Essential Apple Puree

1 x Teaspoon of Taylor and Colledge Vanilla Bean Extract

5/ Then pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix well, make sure the flour and oats are well combined. 

6/ Pour the correct amount of mixture into your waffle machine and cook according to that model's instructions. Mine is a heart shaped waffle maker bought for my birthday, I get 20 waffles out of the mixture and they take 2 minutes exactly to cook through. You might need to experiment to find out how yours works best.
