Keto Waffles with Collagen Boost
Servings: 2–3 waffles
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 5–7 minutes
Total Time: 15–17 minutes
Ingredients
-
1 cup almond flour
-
2 tbsp coconut flour
-
2 tbsp collagen peptides (unflavored)
-
1 tsp baking powder
-
1/4 tsp salt
-
2 large eggs
-
1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any low-carb milk)
-
2 tbsp melted coconut oil or butter
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
2–3 tbsp low-carb sweetener (erythritol, monk fruit, or preferred sweetener)
-
Optional toppings: berries, sugar-free syrup, whipped cream, or nut butter
Instructions
1. Preheat Waffle Iron
-
Turn on your waffle maker and lightly grease with coconut oil or non-stick spray.
-
If your waffle maker has temperature settings, use medium heat.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, collagen peptides, baking powder, salt, and sweetener.
-
Make sure there are no clumps—this ensures a smooth batter.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients
-
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
4. Combine Wet and Dry
-
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until smooth.
-
Batter should be thick but pourable; if too thick, add 1–2 tbsp extra almond milk.
5. Cook the Waffles
-
Pour batter into the preheated waffle iron (about 1/3 to 1/2 cup per waffle, depending on size).
-
Close and cook for 4–6 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
-
Carefully remove with a spatula and place on a wire rack to keep crisp while cooking the next waffle.
6. Serve
-
Stack waffles and add your favorite keto-friendly toppings:
-
Fresh berries (like raspberries or blueberries)
-
Sugar-free syrup
-
Whipped cream or coconut cream
-
Nut butter drizzle
-
Tips & Variations
-
Extra Crispy Waffles: Add 1 tbsp flaxseed meal for more crunch.
-
Chocolate Version: Stir 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder into the batter.
-
Protein Boost: Add 1 tbsp almond or peanut butter to the batter.
-
Storage: Store leftover waffles in an airtight container for up to 3 days; reheat in a toaster for best texture.
