Whisk the dry ingredients in a large bowl: protein powder, flour, baking powder, and salt until uniform.
Combine the wet ingredients: water, egg whites, yogurt or applesauce, and sweetener into the dry mix, stirring until smooth.
Preheat your waffle iron according to instructions, greasing it lightly to prevent sticking.
Once hot, pour batter into the iron and cook according to manufacturer's directions (about 3-5 minutes).
Remove waffles and place on a wire rack, re-greasing the iron before cooking additional batches.
Allow waffles to cool slightly before serving, topped with fruits or syrup.
