🔪 Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Waffle Maker
Preheat your mini waffle maker and lightly grease it with oil or butter to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, combine:
-
Almond flour
-
Coconut flour
-
Baking powder
-
Salt
Mix well to remove lumps.
Step 3: Combine Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk together:
-
Eggs
-
Almond milk
-
Melted butter
Add vanilla and sweetener if making the sweet version.
Step 4: Make the Batter
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Stir until a thick batter forms. Fold in mozzarella cheese and any optional add-ins.
Step 5: Cook the Waffles
Scoop 1–2 tablespoons of batter into the waffle maker and spread slightly.
Cook for 3–5 minutes or until:
-
Golden brown
-
Slightly crispy on the outside
Avoid opening too early to prevent breaking.
