These fluffy Chocolate Protein Waffles are great for an easy, homemade breakfast. They're made with collagen for an extra dose of protein. In addition, these waffles are gluten free, dairy free and Paleo.

I purchased a new miniature waffle maker recently and my love for making waffles has returned. My old one got so much use that it wasn't working as well as I liked. Plus, it had a broken leg and didn't stand straight.

But now that I have a new one, I'm excited to share more waffle recipes, starting with these Chocolate Protein Waffles.

How to Make Gluten Free Chocolate Protein Waffles

To make these waffles, you'll need the following ingredients:

collagen
blanched almond flour
cocoa powder
tapioca flour (or arrowroot)
coconut sugar (or any granulated sugar/sweetener)
baking powder
salt
eggs
water

First, combine all dry ingredients in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Then, mix in the eggs and water. Pour approximately 2 tablespoons of batter onto a preheated miniature waffle iron and cook until done.

It's that easy!

Healthy Waffle Toppings

There are an endless amount of healthy, Paleo waffle toppings. For these photos, I paired these waffles with non-dairy yogurt, slivered almonds, pomegranate seeds, dark chocolate chunks and bee pollen.

Some other topping ideas include:
