🧾 Ingredients
Dry Ingredients:
-
1 cup almond flour
-
2 tbsp coconut flour
-
1 tsp baking powder
-
½ tsp salt
-
½ tsp black pepper
Wet Ingredients:
-
3 large eggs
-
¼ cup heavy cream
-
2 tbsp melted butter (or olive oil)
Flavor Boosters:
-
2 cloves garlic (minced)
-
1 tsp dried oregano
-
1 tsp dried parsley (or 1 tbsp fresh)
-
½ tsp dried thyme
-
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
-
2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
🍳 Instructions
1. Preheat the Waffle Maker
Plug in your waffle maker and allow it to heat up fully. Lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together:
-
Almond flour
-
Coconut flour
-
Baking powder
-
Salt and black pepper
Make sure everything is evenly combined and lump-free.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk:
-
Eggs
-
Heavy cream
-
Melted butter
Mix until smooth and slightly frothy.
4. Build the Flavor
Add to the wet mixture:
-
Minced garlic
-
Oregano, parsley, and thyme
-
Mozzarella and parmesan cheese
Stir until well combined.
5. Make the Batter
Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients.
Stir gently until a thick, scoopable batter forms. Let it sit for 2–3 minutes so the coconut flour can absorb moisture.
6. Cook the Waffles
-
Spoon batter into the waffle maker (don’t overfill).
-
Close the lid and cook for 4–6 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
-
Avoid opening too early to prevent breaking.
7. Serve & Enjoy
Carefully remove the waffles and serve hot. Repeat with remaining batter.
