Almond Flour Waffles

These Almond Flour Waffles are a perfect blend of nutty flavor and fluffy texture, making them a delightful option for anyone looking for a gluten-free, low-carb alternative. With simple ingredients, they come together quickly and can be topped with fresh, healthy choices for added nutrients.

For a Serving Size of Two:

Ingredients:

  • 100 grams almond flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon powder
  • 2 large eggs
  • 60 ml milk (or almond milk)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons melted coconut oil

Procedure:

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add the almond milk, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil, mixing until smooth.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until a thick batter forms.
  • Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it if necessary. Pour a portion of the batter into the waffle iron, spreading evenly, and cook according to your waffle maker’s instructions (approximately 3-4 minutes) until golden and firm.
  • Remove carefully and serve warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh berries, a sprinkle of nuts, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.

Nutritional Benefits:

  • Almond flour provides a nutrient-dense, gluten-free base rich in healthy fats, plant protein, and fiber, which supports satiety and balanced blood sugar levels. It is also a good source of vitamin E, an antioxidant that benefits skin and immune health.
  • Eggs add high-quality protein and essential vitamins like B12 and choline, important for brain function. Coconut oil adds medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which are easily digested and provide quick energy. Together, these ingredients make for a filling, satisfying breakfast that’s low in carbs and packed with heart-healthy fats and muscle-building protein.
