👨🍳 Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Waffle Maker
Turn on your waffle maker and allow it to fully heat. Lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine:
-
Almond flour

Almond milk
-
Melted butter
-
Vanilla extract

Erythritol (if using)
Whisk until smooth and slightly frothy.

Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until a thick batter forms. Let it sit for 2–3 minutes to thicken.
Step 5: Cook the Waffles
-
Pour about 1/3 to 1/2 cup batter into the waffle maker (depending on size).

Close the lid and cook for 3–5 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
