Green Energy for Your Morning
Matcha isn't just for lattes. By infusing your morning waffles with high-quality green tea powder, you get a hit of L-Theanine—an amino acid that promotes calm focus. Paired with protein, this is the ultimate productivity breakfast.
Why Matcha?
- Antioxidants: 137x more EGCG than regular green tea.
- Metabolism: Mildly thermogenic properties.
- No Crash: The caffeine releases slowly compared to coffee.
Ingredients
- 1 scoop Vanilla Whey or Plant Protein
- 1/2 cup Oat flour
- 1 tsp Matcha powder (ceremonial grade)
- 1 egg (or flax egg)
- 1/4 cup Almond milk
- 1/2 tsp Baking powder
Instructions
- Whisk: Combine dry ingredients in a bowl.
- Mix: Add wet ingredients and stir until just combined (don't overmix!).
- Cook: Pour onto a hot, greased waffle iron. Cook for 3-4 minutes.
- Serve: Top with berries and a drizzle of honey.
