Griechisches Joghurtwaffelrezept: Flauschig und 10 g Protein
So einfach Greek yogurt waffle recipe makes three soft and fluffy waffles with lightly golden edges and a cozy hint of cinnamon. They are made with whole wheat flour, naturally sweetened with a little maple syrup, and have about 10 grams of protein per waffle.
Everything comes together in one bowl, there is no butter or oil in the batter, and the whole recipe makes just three waffles.
They are soft rather than super crispy, slightly hearty from the whole wheat flour, and just sweet enough to work with almost any topping. My favorite is Greek yogurt, fresh blackberries, and a little powdered sugar.

Why You’ll Love These Greek Yogurt Waffles
- Soft and fluffy: Greek yogurt keeps the center tender while sparkling water lightens the batter.
- About 10 g protein per waffle: No protein powder needed.
- Kein Butter oder Öl im Teig: The yogurt and egg provide plenty of moisture.
- Only lightly sweet: One tablespoon of maple syrup is enough for the whole batch.
- Kleinserie: Perfect when you are making breakfast for one or two people.
Zutaten, die Sie benötigen
You will find the exact amounts in the recipe card below. Here are the few ingredients worth knowing about.
Greek yogurt: Use a thick, plain Greek yogurt. It keeps this waffle recipe with yogurt soft and adds protein without making the waffles taste noticeably tangy.
Vollkornmehl: This makes the waffles a little more hearty and gives them a subtle nutty flavor. I recommend weighing the flour with a kitchen scale if you can, since too much can make the batter dense. Cups work too, just make sure to measure the flour carefully and avoid packing it too tightly into the cup.
Sprudelwasser: Just a small amount helps loosen the thick yogurt batter and gives these waffles with Greek yogurt a lighter texture.
Maple syrup and cinnamon: Together they add just enough sweetness and warmth without turning breakfast into dessert.
The egg, milk, baking powder, and pinch of salt take care of the rest.
How to Make Greek Yogurt Waffles
Beginnen Sie damit, Ihren Ofen vorzuheizen Waffeleisen. While it heats, use a Schneebesen to combine the Greek yogurt, egg, sparkling water, milk, and maple syrup.
Add the whole wheat flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Stir just until you no longer see dry flour. The batter should look thick and spoonable rather than runny.
Let it sit for five minutes. Whole wheat flour absorbs quite a bit of liquid, and this short rest gives the batter a much nicer consistency.
Lightly grease the waffle maker if needed, then cook the waffles until golden and easy to release from the plates. Every waffle maker is a little different, so let the color and texture tell you when they are ready.
A Few Tips for the Best Yogurt Waffles
- Use thick yogurt. If yours is unusually thick, add a tiny splash of milk after the batter has rested.
- Nicht zu lange mischen. Stop once the flour is incorporated.
- Make sure the waffle iron is hot. This helps the outside turn golden and makes the waffles easier to remove.
- Do not open it too soon. The center stays quite soft, so give the waffle enough time to set.
- Verwenden Sie ein Drahtgestell if needed. Stacking hot waffles traps steam and makes them softer.
Are These High Protein Waffles?
Each waffle contains approximately 10 g of protein, mainly from the Greek yogurt, egg, milk, and whole wheat flour. That makes them a nice higher protein breakfast without adding protein powder to the batter.
If you want even more, serve them with Greek yogurt or Skyr on top. It is much easier than changing the batter and risking dry waffles.
How I Like to Serve Them
Because these Greek yogurt waffles are only lightly sweet, you can really go in any direction with the toppings.
- Greek yogurt, blackberries, and a little powdered sugar
- Fresh strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries
- Banana with peanut or almond butter
- Warm berries or homemade fruit compote
- Apple slices with cinnamon
- Maple syrup and chopped walnuts
If I am making them for breakfast, yogurt and fruit are usually enough for me. For a slower weekend morning, maple syrup and warm berries are especially good.
Griechische Joghurtwaffeln
Zutaten
- ⅓ Tasse plus 1 Esslöffel (100 g fettarmer griechischer Joghurt)
- 1 großes Ei
- ¾ Tasse plus 1 Esslöffel (100 g Vollkornmehl)
- 1 Esslöffel plus 2 Teelöffel (25 ml Sprudelwasser)
- 1 Esslöffel plus 2 Teelöffel (25 ml Milch)
- 1 Esslöffel (20 g Ahornsirup)
- ½ Teelöffel gemahlener Zimt
- ½ Teelöffel Backpulver
- 1 eine Prise Salz
Methode
- Heizen Sie das Waffeleisen gemäß den Anweisungen des Herstellers vor. Fetten Sie es gegebenenfalls leicht ein.
- Griechischen Joghurt, Ei, Mineralwasser, Milch und Ahornsirup in eine mittelgroße Rührschüssel geben. Mit einem Schneebesen glatt rühren.
- Vollkornmehl, Zimt, Backpulver und Salz hinzufügen.
- Rühren Sie vorsichtig um, bis die Zutaten gerade so vermengt sind. Den Teig nicht zu lange rühren.
- Lassen Sie den Teig 5 Minuten ruhen. Dadurch hat das Vollkornmehl Zeit, die Flüssigkeit aufzunehmen, und es entsteht eine gleichmäßigere Konsistenz.
- Verteilen Sie den Teig auf die vorgeheizten Waffelplatten. Die benötigte Menge hängt von der Größe Ihres Waffeleisens ab.
- Backen Sie die Waffeln, bis sie goldbraun sind, in der Mitte fest und sich leicht aus dem Waffeleisen lösen lassen.
- Warm servieren mit fettarmem griechischem Joghurt, frischen Brombeeren, etwas Puderzucker oder Ihren Lieblingszutaten.

Notizen
Einfache Rezeptvariationen
Das Greek yogurt waffle recipe is easy to adapt with what you already have at home.
Skyr: Use plain Skyr instead of Greek yogurt. Add a splash of milk if the batter feels too thick.
Regular yogurt: This is thinner, so start with less milk and adjust from there.
Pflanzliche Milch: Unsweetened oat, soy, or almond milk can replace regular milk.
Vanilla: Add a little vanilla extract if you want a sweeter aroma without adding more sugar.
Schokolade: A small handful of dark chocolate chips turns them into more of a sweet breakfast or snack.
Blueberries: Scatter a few directly over the batter in the waffle maker. Do not add too many since they release moisture as they cook.
Kann ich ein anderes Mehl verwenden?
All purpose flour is the easiest alternative and should make the waffles a little lighter. Start with the same weight and check the consistency after the batter rests.
Oat flour may work too, although the waffles will probably be softer and more delicate. Almond flour is not a direct replacement, and I have not tested this recipe with it.
Lagerung und Wiedererwärmung
Let leftover yogurt waffles cool completely, then keep them in an luftdichter Behälter Im Kühlschrank bis zu 3 Tage.
For the best texture, reheat them in the Toaster, Heißluftfritteuse, Toasterofen, or regular oven. The microwave works too, but the waffles will stay softer.
Can You Freeze Greek Yogurt Waffles?
Yes. These waffles made with yogurt freeze really well, so doubling the recipe is worth it if you want an easy breakfast ready for another day.
Cool them completely, freeze until firm, then transfer them to a freezer safe bag or container. They will keep for up to 3 Monate and can be reheated straight from frozen.

Häufig gestellte Fragen
Kann ich normalen Joghurt anstelle von griechischem Joghurt verwenden?
Yes. Since regular yogurt is thinner, use a little less milk at first and adjust the batter if needed.
Kann ich griechischen Joghurt mit vollem Fettgehalt verwenden?
Yes. It should work well and may give the waffles a slightly richer texture.
Can I prepare the batter the night before?
I would make it fresh. The sparkling water loses carbonation as it sits, so an overnight batter may produce denser waffles.
Why are my Greek yogurt waffles dense?
The most common causes are too much flour, overmixing, or a waffle maker that was not fully heated.
Wie viele Kalorien enthält eine Waffel?
Eine der drei Waffeln enthält ungefähr 184 calories and 10 g of protein. Toppings and any oil used for the waffle maker are not included.
Schlussbetrachtung
If you have an open tub of Greek yogurt in the fridge, these waffles are a very good reason to use it. They are soft, lightly sweet, and filling without needing butter, oil, or protein powder in the batter.
Add your favorite fruit and a spoonful of yogurt, eat them while they are still warm, and breakfast is done.
