Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, unsweetened almond milk, vanilla extract, and unsweetened applesauce until smooth.
Add the coconut flour, almond flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt to the wet ingredients, stirring well until the batter is combined and smooth with no lumps.
Mix in the collagen peptides until they are fully incorporated into the batter.
Slowly add the melted coconut oil or ghee into the mixture and stir thoroughly.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Pour the appropriate amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron, spreading it slightly with a spoon if necessary. Close the waffle iron and cook according to the manufacturerβs directions, usually for about 4-5 minutes, until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through.
Carefully remove the waffles from the iron and repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles immediately, plain or with suitable Whole30-compliant toppings of your choice.
