Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Erythritol or low-carb sweetener
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 3 pieces Large eggs
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cups Melted unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoons Xanthan gum (optional, for better texture)
- as needed Cooking spray or melted butter
Instructions
Preheat your Belgian waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, erythritol, salt, and xanthan gum (if using).
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then stir in the almond milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until you achieve a smooth batter. Let the batter rest for a few minutes to allow the flours to hydrate.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or melted butter.
Pour the batter into the preheated waffle iron, using an appropriate amount based on your waffle iron’s size (typically about 1/3 to 1/2 cup). Spread evenly if needed.
Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffles are golden and crisp, about 3-5 minutes or when the waffle iron indicates it is done.
Carefully remove the waffles and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the waffle iron between batches if necessary.
Serve warm with sugar-free syrup, whipped cream, or berries for a low-carb topping option.
