# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The Greek yogurt creates the fluffiest interior while adding protein that keeps you full for hours
  • They come together in about 20 minutes with ingredients you probably already have
02 -
  • Overmixing the batter will make the waffles tough so stop as soon as the flour disappears
  • Letting the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking creates even fluffier results
03 -
  • Separate the eggs and beat the whites until fluffy then fold them in for extra light waffles
  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for the richest texture and best protein content
