📝 Instructions

1️⃣ Prepare the Waffle Batter

1. Soften the cream cheese if it’s not already soft. Microwave for 15–20 seconds if needed.

2. Combine eggs and cream cheese in a blender. Blend on high until smooth and creamy.

   • If you don’t have a blender, whisk the eggs and cream cheese together in a bowl until no lumps remain.

3. Add dry ingredients: almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and sweetener. Blend or whisk until a smooth batter forms.

   • The batter should be slightly thick but pourable. If too thick, add 1 teaspoon of heavy cream or water.

2️⃣ Preheat the Waffle Iron

• Heat your waffle iron and lightly grease with butter or coconut oil to prevent sticking.

3️⃣ Cook the Waffles

1. Pour enough batter into the waffle iron to just cover the surface (usually about ½ cup, depending on the size of your iron).

2. Close the lid and cook for 4–6 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

   • Avoid opening too early—this can cause the waffle to split.

3. Carefully remove the waffle with a spatula and place it on a plate.

4️⃣ Optional: Keep Warm

• Keep cooked waffles warm in a 200°F (90°C) oven while cooking the remaining batter.

🍯 Serving Suggestions

• Top with sugar-free syrup, whipped cream, or a few fresh berries.

• Add a dollop of nut butter for extra fat and flavor.

• Sprinkle with cinnamon or cocoa powder for a cozy touch.

💡 Tips & Tricks

• Make it fluffier: Separate the eggs and whip the whites until stiff peaks form, then fold them into the batter.

• Make ahead: Cook the waffles, let them cool, then freeze. Reheat in a toaster or oven for a quick keto breakfast.

• Variation: Add a pinch of cinnamon, vanilla, or cocoa powder for a flavor twist.
