Step-by-Step Guide to Making Almond Flour Waffles
Making almond flour waffles is simple and stress-free. Here’s how to do it:
1. Prepare the Batter
Start by whisking the dry ingredients—almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt—in a medium-sized bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and maple syrup. Gradually combine the wet ingredients with the dry, stirring until you get a smooth batter. Don’t overmix; you want the batter just combined.
2. Preheat Your Waffle Maker
While your batter rests for a few minutes, preheat your waffle maker. Lightly grease it with cooking spray or a dab of butter to prevent sticking. This step ensures your waffles cook evenly and are easy to remove.
3. Cook the Waffles
Scoop about ⅓ cup of batter onto the waffle maker (adjust the amount depending on your waffle maker’s size). Close the lid and let the waffle cook until golden brown and crisp, about 3-4 minutes. Repeat until all the batter is used.
4. Keep Them Warm
Place cooked waffles on a baking sheet in a preheated oven (around 200°F) to keep them warm while you cook the rest.
