# What You Need:

→ Wet Ingredients

01 - 1 cup Greek yogurt
02 - 2 large eggs
03 - 1/3 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
04 - 2 tablespoons melted butter (plus more for greasing)
05 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

06 - 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
07 - 1 tablespoon sugar

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
02 - In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.
03 - In another bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
04 - Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently just until incorporated. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
05 - Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron with melted butter or cooking spray.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The Greek yogurt makes these waffles incredibly moist and tender while adding 11 grams of protein per serving
  • They come together in just 25 minutes with ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen
02 -
  • Overmixing the batter will make your waffles tough and dense, so stop as soon as the flour disappears
  • The batter is thick and this is perfectly normal, don't be tempted to thin it out or your waffles won't hold their shape
03 -
  • Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking for even fluffier results
  • Separate your eggs and whip the whites before folding them in for restaurant-style height
