1 tablespoon coconut flour
-
1 teaspoon baking powder
-
1 pinch salt
-
1–2 tablespoons keto-friendly sweetener (erythritol or monk fruit)
Wet Ingredients:
-
2 large eggs
-
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
-
2 tablespoons melted butter (or coconut oil)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

🍳 Equipment
-
Waffle maker
-
Mixing bowl
-
Whisk or fork
-
Measuring cups/spoons
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Preheat the Waffle Maker
Turn on your waffle maker and let it fully heat up. Lightly grease it with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
2. Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a single large bowl, add:
-
Almond flour
-
Coconut flour
-
Baking powder
-
Salt
-
Sweetener
Whisk until everything is evenly combined and no clumps remain.
3. Add the Wet Ingredients
Crack the eggs directly into the same bowl. Add:
-
Almond milk
-
Melted butter
-
Vanilla extract
Whisk thoroughly until you get a smooth, slightly thick batter. Let it rest for 1–2 minutes so the coconut flour can absorb moisture.
4. Cook the Waffles
Pour about 1/3 to 1/2 cup of batter (depending on your waffle maker size) into the center. Close the lid and cook for 3–5 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
💡 Tip: Avoid opening the waffle maker too early—this helps achieve a crisp exterior.
5. Repeat & Serve
Remove carefully and repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately for best texture.
