Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil, melted
- 2 tablespoons Stevia or low-carb sweetener of choice
Instructions
Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add in the almond milk, vanilla extract, melted coconut oil, and stevia. Mix thoroughly.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron with cooking spray or a small amount of coconut oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the waffle iron, spreading it out slightly to cover the surface evenly. Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crispy on the outside, approximately 3-5 minutes.
Remove the waffles carefully and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh berries, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or a drizzle of sugar-free syrup.
