Low FODMAP Chocolate Protein Waffles
Waffles for breakfast that are actually high in protein, genuinely gut-friendly, and taste like dessert? Yes, really. These Low FODMAP chocolate protein waffles use That Protein Double Choc Chip Porridge — a FODMAP Friendly certified plant protein blend — to deliver fluffy, chocolatey waffles that won't leave your gut feeling sorry for itself. Perfect for a weekend treat or a batch-cooked weekday breakfast.
Why These Waffles Work for a Low FODMAP Diet
Getting enough protein on a Low FODMAP diet can feel like a puzzle. Most protein powders contain high-FODMAP sweeteners, milk derivatives, or untested ingredients. That Protein's Double Choc Chip Porridge is FODMAP Friendly certified, made with organic ingredients, and blends seamlessly into waffle batter — no gritty texture, just rich chocolate flavour. If you love a deeper cacao hit, Blissful Cacao (also FODMAP Friendly certified) works beautifully as a swap.
Ingredients (makes 4 waffles)
- 3 tbsp That Protein Double Choc Chip Porridge
- 100g oat flour (certified gluten-free if needed)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- 2 large eggs
- 180ml plant milk (oat, rice or coconut — even better with homemade nut milk)
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp melted coconut oil, plus extra for greasing
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Method
- Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it with coconut oil.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the oat flour, Double Choc Chip Porridge, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl or blender, combine the eggs, plant milk, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until just combined — a few small lumps are fine. Do not overmix.
- Ladle batter into the preheated waffle iron (about 4–5 tbsp per waffle) and cook for 3–4 minutes until golden and crisp.
- Serve immediately with sliced banana (up to one-third of a banana per serving is Low FODMAP), a drizzle of maple syrup, and a dollop of lactose-free yoghurt if desired.
Nutritional Note
Each waffle delivers approximately 12–14g of protein, thanks to the eggs and That Protein's plant-based blend. Oat flour provides slow-release carbohydrates to keep you full through the morning, while coconut oil adds a source of healthy fats. This recipe is naturally dairy-free, wheat-free (when using certified gluten-free oat flour), and free from high-FODMAP ingredients.
Make It Your Own
Batch-cook your waffles and freeze them between sheets of baking paper. Pop one straight into the toaster on a busy morning for a high-protein breakfast in 90 seconds. Swap the cocoa powder for an extra tablespoon of the Double Choc Chip Porridge for an even richer result.
