🛒 Ingredients
Dry Ingredients:
-
1/4 cup coconut flour
-
1 tsp baking powder
-
1/4 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients:
-
4 large eggs (room temperature)
-
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
-
2 tbsp melted butter (or coconut oil)
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
1–2 tbsp keto-friendly sweetener (like erythritol or monk fruit)
🍳 Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Waffle Maker
Preheat your waffle maker according to its instructions. Lightly grease it with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together:
-
Coconut flour
-
Baking powder
-
Salt
Make sure there are no lumps—coconut flour tends to clump.
Step 3: Combine Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk:
-
Eggs
-
Almond milk
-
Melted butter
-
Vanilla extract
-
Sweetener
Mix until smooth and slightly frothy.
Step 4: Make the Batter
Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Stir well until fully combined.
👉 Let the batter rest for 2–3 minutes.
This allows the coconut flour to absorb moisture, giving you a thicker, waffle-ready batter.
Step 5: Cook the Waffles
-
Pour the batter into the preheated waffle maker
-
Spread slightly if needed
-
Cook for 3–5 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp
Avoid opening too early—this helps them stay fluffy and intact.
Step 6: Serve & Enjoy
Carefully remove the waffles and serve warm with your favorite keto toppings.

🔥 Tips for Perfect Keto Waffles
-
Don’t skip resting the batter – coconut flour needs time to absorb liquid
-
Use room temperature eggs for better texture
-
Cook a bit longer than regular waffles for crispiness
-
If batter is too thick → add a splash of almond milk
-
If too thin → add a pinch more coconut flour
