Ingredients
- 24 ounce container low-fat cottage cheese
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/4 cup toasted wheat germ
- 2 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup milk
- 3 each egg whites
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
Instructions
- Place undrained cottage cheese in a blender. Cover and blend until very smooth.
- Set aside 1/2 cups of the whipped cottage cheese.
- Transfer remaining whipped cottage cheese to an airtight container; cover and chill until serving or up to 1 week.
- In a medium bowl combine flours, wheat germ, sugar, baking powder, and 1/4 tsp. salt.
- In another bowl whisk together the reserved 1/2 cups whipped cottage cheese, the milk, egg whites, almond butter, and oil. Add to flour mixture; stir just until moistened. If you like, cover and chill batter up to 2 days.
- Add batter to a preheated, lightly greased waffle baker (either a regular or Belgian waffle baker works). Close lid quickly; do not open until done.
- Cook each waffle until toasted and set, about 4 minutes.
- Serve topped with additional whipped cottage cheese.
