Waffle Cone Ingredients

200 grams all-purpose flour (1.5 cups)
100 grams sugar (0.5 cups)
150 grams butter, melted (0.5 cup)
250 milliliters milk (1 cup)
2 large eggs
We recommend:

Protein Cream Ingredients

100 grams protein powder (about 2 cups based on type)
200 milliliters light cream (0.8 cups)
50 grams powdered sugar (0.5 cups)

Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Waffle Cone Batter

In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and sugar. Mix thoroughly to prevent any lumps. In a separate bowl, whisk together melted butter, milk, and eggs until they are well incorporated.

Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms. Let the batter rest for approximately 15 minutes to achieve the right consistency for making cones.

Step 2

Preheat the Waffle Maker

Turn on your waffle maker and set it to a medium-high temperature. Allow it to preheat for about 5 minutes. This step is essential for creating perfectly crisp waffle cones.

Once heated, lightly brush the waffle maker with a bit of oil to prevent sticking. This will ensure that your cones come out easily after baking.

Step 3

Bake the Waffle Cones

Pour a portion of the batter onto the center of the waffle maker, then close the lid and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown.

Carefully remove the waffle and quickly shape it into a cone, pushing one end together and rolling it. Hold the cone together for a few seconds until it firms up. Repeat this process until all the batter is used up.

Step 4

Make the Protein Cream

In a mixing bowl, combine protein powder with light cream and powdered sugar. Beat the mixture until it’s light and fluffy, ensuring no clumps of powder remain.

Adjust the consistency by adding a bit more cream if needed. The goal is to achieve a creamy, spreadable texture that can be piped into your cones.

Step 5

Assemble and Serve

Fill each waffle cone with the prepared protein cream, using a piping bag for neatness. You can also add any toppings or sprinkles you like on top.

Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious homemade waffle cones filled with protein cream. Perfect for a snack or a delightful dessert!

Variations

Looking for gluten-free or vegan options? Don't worry, we’ve got you covered! 🌱For a gluten-free variant, substitute regular flour with a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend. You won’t lose any of that crunchy texture! If you're looking to make these cones vegan, replace eggs with a flaxseed egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 2.5 tablespoons water, resting for 10 minutes). For the cream, use coconut cream whipped until fluffy as a fantastic dairy-free option. Both variations promise to deliver on taste while accommodating dietary preferences!

Faq

  • What if my waffle cones are too soft?

    If they turn out soft, it usually means they weren't cooked long enough in the waffle maker. Make sure you're allowing them to cook until they're golden and crisp!

  • Can I make the cones in advance?

    Absolutely! You can make the cones a day ahead. Just let them cool completely and store them in an airtight container to maintain their crispness.

  • How can I get evenly shaped cones?

    The key is to pour the right amount of batter onto your waffle maker and close the lid gently. Practice makes perfect!

  • Can I add flavors to the batter?

    Definitely! Vanilla extract, cocoa powder, or even matcha powder can elevate your cones' flavor profile. Just be sure to adjust the liquid ingredients accordingly!

  • How do I store leftover cream?

    You can store leftover protein cream in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Just give it a good whisk before using!

  • My cones are too thick; how can I fix that?

    If they are too thick, simply reduce the amount of batter you pour into the waffle maker. A thin layer will yield lighter, crispier cones!
