These Greek Yogurt Waffles are a delicious and protein-packed twist on a classic breakfast favorite. Made with wholesome ingredients like nonfat Greek yogurt, eggs, and milk, they yield light, fluffy waffles with a subtle tang from the yogurt and a hint of vanilla. Perfect for a quick morning meal or brunch, they’re easy to prepare and can be stored in the fridge or freezer for convenient reheating.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups nonfat plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tsp vanilla bean paste

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Combine Wet Ingredients: Whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, milk, and vanilla bean paste in a large bowl until smooth and well blended.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and kosher salt thoroughly.
  3. Fold Dry into Wet: Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a flat spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain waffle fluffiness.
  4. Preheat and Prepare Waffle Iron: Heat your waffle iron until hot and spray the surface lightly with oil to prevent sticking.
  5. Cook Waffles: Pour batter into the center of the preheated waffle iron. Cook for about 2 minutes or until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Repeat: Continue the process with remaining batter, spraying the waffle iron with oil before each batch to ensure easy removal and prevent sticking.
  7. Store and Reheat: Keep leftover waffles in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze them for up to 3 months. Reheat using a toaster or toaster oven directly from frozen or thawed until warm and crispy.

Notes

  • Be careful not to overmix the batter to keep waffles light and fluffy.
  • Spray the waffle iron with oil between batches to prevent sticking.
  • Frozen waffles can be toasted directly from the freezer without thawing.
  • For extra flavor, consider topping with fresh fruit, nuts, or a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
