Here at Mr Vitamins, our practitioners know that as part of a balanced diet, we should not restrict ourselves from indulgence. We can however, find healthier alternatives and eliminate the guilt in consuming foods that offer little to no nutritional value. 

This is a waffle recipe I have come up with that is packed full of nutrients. It is  low GI, and especially high in protein and omega 3's, incorporating buckwheat flour, collagen powder, and chia egg. This recipe is delicious and so easy to make.

(Makes 10-12)

Dry ingredients

2x cups of Lotus Buckwheat Flour
1x tsp of salt
4x tsp of Organic Times Baking Powder
1x scoop of Amazonia Raw Collagen Protein Powder
2x tbsp of Niulife Organic Coconut Sugar

1x tbsp of chia egg*
1 1/2 cup of Milk (we love oat or almond but you can choose any milk)

Method

Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl, then add in your wet ingredients. Make sure you give it a good stir until your waffle batter is free of any lumps and do not overmix, otherwise you will notice air bubbles. Pour waffle batter into waffle making machine and cook until golden and crisp, and voila! 

You can have these waffles for breakfast or as a snack. You may even want to have it for dessert with a spoonful of ice cream!
