Preheat your waffle iron to medium-high heat.
Trim the ends off the Brussels sprouts and peel away any brown outer layers. Thinly slice or shred the Brussels sprouts.
In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the Brussels sprouts, season with salt and black pepper, and sauté for about 5 minutes until they are tender and slightly crispy. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, unsweetened almond milk, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Fold in the sautéed Brussels sprouts and grated Parmesan cheese into the waffle batter.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or brush with a bit more olive oil. Pour about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of the batter onto the hot waffle iron, spreading it slightly. Close the lid and cook for about 3-5 minutes or until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through.
Carefully remove the waffles from the iron and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the Brussels waffles warm, topped with additional Parmesan cheese or a dollop of sour cream if desired.
