Easy & Fluffy Keto Waffles!
These delicious and easy-to-make keto waffles are the perfect low-carb breakfast. Fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside, they'll satisfy your cravings without the guilt!
Equipment
- Waffle Iron
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 2 large egg whites (or 1/4 cup liquid egg whites)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or your favorite low-carb milk alternative)
- 1/4 cup avocado oil (or melted coconut oil)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cups almond flour
- 1/3 cup unflavored whey protein powder
- 1/4 cup granular erythritol (like Swerve or Monk Fruit sweetener)
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- In a spacious mixing bowl, gently whisk together the eggs, egg whites, almond milk, avocado oil, and vanilla extract until everything is nicely combined.
- Now, add the almond flour, granular sweetener, whey protein powder, baking powder, and salt to the wet mixture. Whisk until the batter is smooth and lump-free. Let this healthy batter rest for 5 minutes – this helps activate the baking powder!
- While the batter rests, preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it to prevent sticking. For smaller, snack-sized waffles, pour about 1/4 cup of batter into each section. If you prefer larger, classic round waffles, you'll need approximately 1/3 cup per waffle.
- Close the lid and cook until your waffles are beautifully puffed up and golden brown on both sides. Cooking times can vary, so keep an eye on them! Don't worry if they seem a little soft at first; they'll naturally crisp up more as they cool.
- For an even crisper texture, you can transfer the cooked waffles to a wire rack and place them in a warm oven (around 200°F or 95°C) for about 10 minutes. This gives them that perfect crunch!
