Prep Instructions for Milk Tea Protein Waffles
1. Waffle Batter:
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk all your dry ingredients: almond flour, baking powder, and the Boba Nu Milk Tea Protein Powder. In another bowl, beat the eggs while adding the almond milk and vanilla extract. Combine the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until the mix is smooth and even. Add melted butter or coconut oil and fold gently into the mix.
2. Cooking the Waffles:
Heat the waffle iron at medium heat and lightly coat it with butter or oil. Put the batter into the waffle iron and cook for about 3-5 minutes, until the waffles are golden and crispy on the outside. Just because the waffles cook, the milk tea aroma will tempt you through your kitchen even before they are ready.
3. Waffle Assembly:
Once your waffles are done and have cooled just a bit, plate them and drizzle the milk tea syrup over them. For added flair, sprinkle some boba pearls over the top and dollop on whipped cream or sugar-free syrup, if desired. The combination of a warm, crispy waffle with creamy milk tea flavor will make for one truly indulgent, yet health-conscious, meal.

Tips for the Best Milk Tea Protein Waffles
Making protein waffles is very finicky, as the texture and flavor tend to not come out right with the use of alternative flours and low-carb sweeteners. Here's a fix for perfecting the recipe:
- The consistency of the waffle batter is important to make a fluffy waffle. It can be thicker, especially with protein powders and almond flour being in use, but don't you worry, it should not be as runny as regular waffle batter.
- Crispier Waffles: Cook waffles in a waffle iron for an extra minute or two for crispy waffles. Alternatively, you can pop them into the oven at 300ºF for a few minutes after cooking to keep them that way.
Why Low Carb and Protein Waffles?
Traditional waffles made from refined flour and sugar lead to spikes in blood sugar, which leave you lethargic. Made with almond flour, coconut flour, and Boba Nu's Original Milk Tea Protein Powder, you are enjoying a protein-packed, low-carb option that keeps you full and energized without a sugar crash because our prtotein is sweetened with all-natural monk fruit instead! With healthy fats, proteins, and fiber combined, these waffles are ideal for keto diets and low-carb diets, but also for anyone looking to just make it through the day.
