Happy St. Patrick’s Day! I’ve seen lots of green food on Instagram this past week, so I’m excited to bring you something new and green today – these Matcha Protein Waffles! I’m a big fan of green tea, and matcha is like green tea’s more mature older brother. The flavor is more complex, a little earthy and nutty, with a slight sweetness. I was a little worried that the flavor wouldn’t come through in a cooked waffle, but these have such an amazing matcha flavor that I couldn’t stop eating them after their photo shoot.

I’ve seen people put matcha in just about anything, but so far I’ve really only shared one matcha recipe on PBF (*gasp*). Well, I hope you’re ready for more, because a matcha floodgate may have just opened!

I finally broke down and bought a stand mixer recently and I’m a little obsessed with making whipped cream using it! It’s so easy and makes me wonder why I haven’t always been making my own whipped cream. Seriously, it takes less than 5 minutes! Just add a cup of heavy whipping cream, 2 tbsp of granulated sugar, and 1/2 tsp of vanilla and whip on medium-high for 3-4 minutes. Boom. Welcome to pillowy clouds of whipped cream, no aerosol or weird food additives needed.

Speaking of kitchen appliances, I have a pretty killer waffle maker that I love to use. It looks exactly like this one, but mine is a Waring Pro that I can’t seem to find on Amazon anymore. I think the design may have been bought out by Cuisinart or something…the Waring Pro website has shown this model as out of stock for a long time and an Amazon search for this specific model lands you at the Cuisinart model I linked above. #detectiveskills
