Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 15 mins
Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: Keto
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon erythritol (optional)
- Butter or oil for greasing the waffle iron
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients and ensure they are at room temperature, especially the eggs and almond milk.
- Preheat your waffle iron to medium-high heat. Lightly grease the waffle iron surfaces with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, crack the two eggs and whisk them until they become smooth and slightly frothy.
- Add the unsweetened almond milk to the whisked eggs and mix thoroughly to combine.
- In a separate bowl, combine the almond flour, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and erythritol (if using). Whisk these dry ingredients to ensure even distribution.
- Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring continuously to create a smooth, lump-free batter. The consistency should be similar to traditional waffle batter.
- Let the batter rest for 2-3 minutes to allow the almond flour to absorb the liquid and thicken slightly.
- Pour the appropriate amount of batter into the preheated and greased waffle iron. Close the iron and cook until the waffle is golden brown and crispy, typically 3-4 minutes.
- Carefully remove the waffle from the iron using a heat-resistant spatula. Repeat the process with remaining batter.
- Serve immediately while warm. Optional: Top with sugar-free syrup, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of additional cinnamon.
- Store any leftover waffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Reheat in a toaster or oven to maintain crispness.
Tips
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Make sure your eggs and almond milk are at room temperature before mixing. This helps create a smoother batter and fluffier waffles.
- Preheat the Waffle Iron: Don’t skip preheating your waffle iron! A hot iron ensures that your waffles cook evenly and achieve that perfect crispy texture.
- Grease Generously: Use enough butter or oil to grease the waffle iron. This prevents sticking and ensures easy removal of your delicious waffles.
- Mixing Technique: When combining wet and dry ingredients, stir gently but thoroughly to avoid lumps. A smooth batter is key to achieving that perfect waffle consistency.
- Let It Rest: Allowing the batter to rest for a few minutes lets the almond flour absorb the liquid, resulting in a thicker batter and fluffier waffles.
- Watch the Cooking Time: Keep an eye on your waffles as they cook. Cooking times may vary by waffle iron, so check for a golden brown color and crispiness.
- Serve Fresh: Waffles are best enjoyed immediately while warm. Consider topping them with sugar-free syrup, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for an extra touch of indulgence.
- Storage Tips: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat them in a toaster or oven to restore their crispiness.
