Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup protein powder (unsweetened, whey or plant-based)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon optional sweetener (such as stevia or erythritol)
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract, melted coconut oil, and optional sweetener until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until you have a smooth batter. The batter should be thick but pourable; if too thick, add a little more almond milk.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with a non-stick spray or additional melted coconut oil.
Pour about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of batter (depending on the size of your waffle iron) onto the center of the preheated iron.
Close the waffle iron and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and easily release from the iron.
Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve hot with your choice of low-carb toppings such as fresh berries, sugar-free syrup, or nuts.
