Crispy curd cheese waffles
Not only are curd cheese waffles a tasty treat, but they also offer a healthier alternative to traditional versions. By using curd cheese, egg whites, and fruits, these waffles become packed with protein, vitamins, and minerals. You can replace sugar with xylitol or erythritol as a sweetener.
Curd cheese is a great source of protein, essential for tissue growth and repair, and helps keep you feeling fuller for longer. It's also rich in calcium, crucial for maintaining healthy bones and teeth.
Raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries are true vitamin powerhouses. They're packed with antioxidants that protect cells from damage and high in fiber to support digestive health. Agave syrup is a natural sweetener with fewer calories than regular sugar.
Ingredients:
- 200 grams of low-fat curd cheese,
- 2 egg whites,
- 2 eggs,
- 2 tablespoons of sugar,
- 100 grams of all-purpose flour.
For decoration:

Instructions:
Step 1. In a bowl, combine the low-fat curd cheese with the eggs, egg whites, sugar, and all-purpose flour. Mix thoroughly, ensuring the curd cheese is well mashed into the batter.
