📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt.

3. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs and combine them with the coconut milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.

4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix; lumps are okay.

5. Gently fold in the diced pineapple and shredded coconut into the batter.

6. Lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray or a brush of oil.

7. Pour the batter into the preheated waffle iron, ensuring you do not overfill it. Close the lid and cook according to the waffle iron's instructions until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, about 4-5 minutes per batch.

8. Carefully remove the waffles and repeat the process with the remaining batter.

9. Serve the waffles warm, topped with whipped cream, toasted coconut flakes, and a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.
