Almond Flour Waffles with Berries (Printable Version)
Fluffy almond flour waffles with mixed berries and maple drizzle — gluten-free breakfast ready in about 25 minutes.
# What You'll Need:
→ Waffle Batter
01 - 2 cups almond flour
02 - 2 large eggs
03 - 1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk
04 - 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil
05 - 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
06 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
07 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
08 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
→ Topping
09 - 1 cup mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
10 - 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (optional)
11 - Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
# Step-by-Step:
01 - Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly distributed.
03 - In a separate bowl, beat the eggs thoroughly, then mix in the almond milk, melted butter, honey, and vanilla extract until well combined.
04 - Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth, lump-free batter forms.
05 - Lightly grease the waffle iron. Pour approximately 1/2 cup of batter per waffle, or enough to cover the surface, then close and cook for 3 to 5 minutes until golden and crisp.
06 - Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the iron between batches as needed.
07 - Serve hot, topped with fresh berries and a drizzle of maple syrup or a light dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
# Expert Advice:
01 -
- These waffles are naturally gluten-free and low carb but you would never guess it from the taste or texture.
- The batter comes together in one bowl with zero fuss and cooks up beautifully crisp every single time.
- Berries on top make it feel like a special occasion breakfast without any extra effort.
02 -
- Almond flour batter is thicker than traditional batter so do not panic when it does not pour like a liquid.
- Opening the waffle iron too early will tear the waffle apart so wait until steam slows down significantly before peeking.
03 -
- Do not overmix the batter or the waffles will turn dense instead of fluffy.
- Every waffle iron runs differently so make a test waffle first to dial in your timing.
