Paleo Waffles
(this recipe is a modification of a Pancake recipe from
Ingredients:
2 Large Eggs
1 T. Vanilla Extract
1/4 C. Water
1.5 C. Blanched Almond Flour
1/2 tsp. Sea Salt
1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
1 T. Arrowroot Powder
1/2 Apple (I used Gala), grated
1/4 C. Shredded, Unsweetened Coconut
Coconut Oil, for greasing
- In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, honey, vanilla, and water, until smooth.
- Add the almond flour, salt, baking soda, arrowroot powder, and cinnamon. Mix thoroughly,
- Add apple and coconut. Mix to combine.
- Scoop or ladle (approximately 1/4 C.) into heated (and greased, if needed) waffle iron. Cook approxiamtely 1 minute*, or until golden brown.
- Serve with 1 T. warm maple syrup (use the real stuff).
These waffles are delicious!!! They will not produce that crispy outer crust that your normal, sugar-laden waffles provide, but they will offer a flavorful, soft, and satisfying breakfast option. Try these waffles (in moderation, of course), you will not be disappointed.
Other ideas/suggestions (obviously there are many, but here are a few):
-Substitute 1/2 C. Ground Flaxseed for 1/2 C. of the Almond Flour, for an extra boost of Omega-3
-Omit the apples and add 1/4 C. Frozen Blueberries and 1/4 tsp. Ground Ginger
-Omit the apples and add 1 Diced Banana and 1/4 tsp. of ground nutmeg

MUST.GET.WAFFLE.MAKER...ASAP. ;)
Yes. Do it! I'm making a savory version this weekend so...
This batter is SO easy...it was actually the result of having only two eggs in the fridge (together we usually eat 6 or 7).
I tried this recipe right as our family was going Paleo in an effort at appeasement. While they liked the flavor, they fussed about the texture so I experimented with some changes and ended up with this (makes 4.5 7" round waffles):
4 eggs plus 2 egg whites (separate and beat the whites to foamy peaks w/ a pinch of sea salt)
2 T vanilla
1/2 cup So Delicious unsweeted coconut milk
1.5 cup Nut flour (your choice almond, pecan, flaxseed or all combined)
3 T Coconut flour
1/2 tsp Sea Salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1 pinch fresh ground nutmeg
Instead of shredded apple and coconut, I used 2/3 cup organic apple sauce.
I mixed all the wet ingredients, save the egg whites, with the dry ingredients. I then folded the mixture into the egg whites trying to preserve as much volume as possible. After cooking, the result was a very airy and light waffle. They still are softer than regular waffles but the edges crisp in the toaster when reheating.
Each waffle is: 350 cal, 16g protein, 18.5g carbs, 25g fat
Thanks for checking out my blog and sampling this recipe. I will definitely try your version when I get home!
I hope the Paleo adventure is going well for you! I'm spreading the word, during my visit with girlfriends, in SF. They think I'm a little wacky, but I think results speak for themselves and have them considering the omission of sugar and grains, at least...it's a start. :)
I'd like some, please.
Just eating these for breakfast now! Love how moist they are. Not missing the crispy crust at all :-) . Thanks!
made these this morning for my little waffle monster, he loved them!
Downloaded and printed out this recipe probably a year ago but didn't try it till this past Sunday. I must say, this is awesome! The batter was exactly the right consistency for my belgian waffler; I was in heaven. My son and I made a feast of them!
I tried your recipe this morning and it turned out great. The waffles were delicious and fluffy, but very filling. I was worried about the batter sticking to my waffle maker but it didn't (maybe because it had a little grease from a previous use). Definitely a make again. Thanks!
I used Carina's modified recipe and loved it! I found a need to add quite a bit more almond milk for softer batter- & with some fruit and maple syrup, these are quite like the real thing!
