Weekday mornings are busy now that the kids are back in school. I love to workout in the morning and the kids need an early breakfast which leaves little time to cook breakfast during the week. It helps us out so much when I prep a couple of ingredients or meals on the weekend for the week ahead and I've been loving these Pumpkin Protein Waffles. They're whole-grain, protein-packed, made with real pumpkin and toast up nicely during the week. If you're looking for a delicious yet nutritious breakfast, check out these waffles.

If you're looking to really stock yourself up on waffles, feel free to double the batch and freeze a bunch. This batch in my large waffle maker makes 8 large waffles. I would say an adult would eat somewhere between 1/2 a large waffle and a whole one. 

Taylor Smart Food Scale

Since baking is a science and turns out best when you accurately measure the ingredients, I used the Taylor Smart Food Scale with Precision Hub App. The scale of course helps me weigh my ingredients for this recipe while the app does everything else! The app tracks your calories, protein, carbs, and other nutrition information right on your phone. It combines the basics of weighing your food with digital health tracking for those who are on a health journey.

On the Precision Hub App, you can customize your calorie and macro goals. It even has a grocery store barcode scanner and has it where you can store up to 8 profiles on the app.
