Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups blanched almond flour
  • 2 teaspoons sugar white, brown, or coconut
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine salt
  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • 1/2 cup milk dairy or unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter or melted coconut oil
  • Nonstick cooking spray or neutral oil for greasing the waffle iron
  • Maple syrup for serving (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions until fully hot.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the almond flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined and no clumps remain.
  3. In a larger bowl, whisk the egg, milk, and melted butter or coconut oil until smooth and slightly frothy.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir with a spatula until just combined and no dry spots remain; the batter should be thick but pourable.
  5. Lightly grease the hot waffle iron with cooking spray or a thin layer of oil, making sure to coat the surface evenly.
  6. Pour about 1/3 cup of batter into the center of the waffle iron and gently spread it toward the edges without forcing it over the sides.
  7. Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffle is deep golden brown with crisp edges, about 4 to 5 minutes, or until your waffle maker indicates it is done.
  8. Carefully remove the waffle with a fork or silicone tongs and transfer it to a wire rack or serving plate.
  9. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the waffle iron lightly between each waffle.
  10. Serve the almond flour waffles warm with maple syrup or your favorite toppings.

Notes

- For the best texture and release, make sure the waffle iron is fully preheated and well greased before each waffle.
- If using coconut oil, ensure all ingredients are at room temperature to prevent the oil from solidifying in the batter.
- Finished waffles can be kept warm in a 200°F oven on a wire rack while you cook the remaining batches.
- Leftover waffles freeze well; reheat in a toaster or oven until hot and crisp.
