Add some health into your breakfast routine
If you're like me, you could eat waffles any time!
Not only are they delicious, but they're versatile for meals such as breakfast, lunch and even snacking. Waffles are also a great way to sneak in extra nourishing ingredients like collagen. Enhanced Collagen Powders blend into the batter perfectly without altering the taste.
For this recipe, I went with the Enhanced Collagen Bone & Joint. This is a great way to easily increase joint support, bone health along with collagen supplementation. Given that I workout and on occasion work on new exercise programs, this collagen powder can help keep my bones and joints in tip top shape and keep me pain-free.
Ready to make some waffles infused with added health benefits?
If you don’t have a waffle maker, you can make these into pancakes. Just make sure to grease a pan beforehand and make them as little or as big as you'd like.
Whether you're making waffles or pancakes, remember you can play with your toppings; some suggested favourites include:
- Greek yogurt or coconut yogurt
- Butter or coconut butter
- Jam (seriously, so good!)
- Maple syrup
- Berries
- Banana
- Nuts & seeds
- Nut butter
- Coconut flakes
Makes 3 waffles - the amount of servings may differ based on the size of waffle maker used
