Ingredients:
- 2 cups almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour (optional for extra structure)
- 2 tablespoons sugar (or a low-carb sweetener like monk fruit)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk (or almond milk for dairy-free)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (or coconut oil for dairy-free)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Preheat the waffle iron: Start by preheating your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour (if using), sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Combine wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Make the batter: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until fully combined. The batter will be slightly thick, but if it’s too thick, you can add a bit more milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Cook the waffles: Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron with non-stick spray or butter. Pour about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of batter into the waffle iron (depending on its size) and cook according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually 3-5 minutes, until golden and crispy.
- Serve: Remove the waffles and serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, syrup, whipped cream, or even a drizzle of almond butter for extra nuttiness.
Tips:
- For an extra crispy texture, let the waffles sit in the waffle iron a little longer after cooking.
- You can also add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for added warmth and flavor.
