To create creamy keto waffles without any need for added sugar, this recipe uses a simple base of cashew butter, coconut milk, almond flour and coconut oil. This way you get tasty waffles that are high in protein and healthy fats!
Compared to waffles made with traditional flours, these take just a bit longer to cook. The waffle maker will usually begin to steam when it’s ready and will take around 7 minutes.
To make your keto waffles, grease a waffle maker with coconut oil and preheat to medium. Mix almond flour, baking soda, and salt together, then separate the eggs and beat the egg whites with a hand mixer in a separate bowl. Add the egg yolks, coconut oil, cashew butter and coconut milk to the flour mixture and stir to combine. Then, fold in the fluffy egg whites until smooth. The batter will be thin, but it’ll fluff up into a large and filling waffle in the waffle maker.
Serve your keto waffles for breakfast with melted cashew butter on top for brunch, or simply grab one for a healthy breakfast or snack on the go!
Tip: These keto waffles are great for meal prep. Freeze pre-made waffles in an airtight container for up to 30 days, then defrost and warm on the stovetop for 5 minutes. Perfect for busy mornings!
