Low Carb Waffles – Slim Kitchen

Before you begin

Here are some useful tips to make sure your waffles are great:

• Choose the right almond flour: Use finely ground almond flour for best results!
• Cool on wire racks: If you don’t eat immediately, let the waffles cool on the wire rack. This makes them crispy!
• Do double or three batches: Make sure to cook two or three batches as they will stay in good condition in the refrigerator and will pull out a quick breakfast.

How to Make Almond Flour Waffle

Making low-carb waffles is simple and flexible. Here’s how to do this:

1. Stir the wet ingredients

In a mixing bowl, mix the egg, almond milk and vanilla extract until smooth.

2. Mix dry ingredients

In a separate bowl, stir together almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and sweetener of your choice.

3. Combining everything

Add the dry ingredients to moisture and stir until combined. The batter is thick in texture. Add more milk as needed to loosen a little!

4. Cook waffles

Heat the waffle iron and spray with non-stick spray. Add the batter and cook until golden brown and has a crisp texture. Cooking times will vary by your waffle maker.

Recipe ideas and tips

This waffle recipe is basic, which means you have the ability to do whatever you want! Here are our favorite options:

• Add fruit: Consider adding fresh fruit to the batter. Blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, bananas or chopped apples are all amazing on waffles.
• Let them salty: Want to actually kick in? If you’re going to eat low-carb but don’t worry too much about calories, add some bacon, cheddar and chives to the batter to pair with salty waffles with fried eggs. The brunch tasted great, especially with the drizzle with some hot sauce and low carb maple syrup on top.
• Add spices: You can add any spice to these waffles. When making breakfast waffles, I usually go for cinnamon, but if you want a saltier waffle, you can add Italian seasoning, bagel seasoning, or lemon pepper.
• milk: When making batter, you can use any type of milk. Just make sure you keep the sugar content low to keep the carbohydrate content low.
• Keep ratio: Make sure not to change the proportions of different flours, as almond flour and coconut flour vary greatly. Changing the ratio will completely change the waffles, and they may not be the same.
• Add-in: To increase the protein increase, consider adding some chopped nuts or seeds to the batter. You can also add sugar-free chocolate chips.

Low-carb waffles?

Since these waffles are low-carb, you may want to offer them low-carb toppings or side dishes. Here are some things to consider:

• Add meat: Take some bacon, turkey bacon or breakfast sausage to cook and serve on the side. Canadian bacon or breakfast ham can also work.
• Add eggs: Offer some omelet cakes, cheese omelettes or breakfast egg casserole next to the waffles for more protein!
• Keep ketone: Since if you are keto or low-carb, not maple syrup, consider using some peanut butter or almond butter, which is diluted with a little hot water. Add stevia or other sweetener to make it more like syrup. Sugar-free maple syrup can also be used if you like!
• Put it on top: I like waffles with some full fat Greek yogurt or ricotta and some fresh berries on it.
• Salty toppings: If you are making a saltier version, you can top it with cheddar, crushed bacon, fresh chives or green onions.
• Add jam: Depending on your diet, consider making some Chia seed jam to serve on waffles.

Can I freeze keto waffles? How long will they last in the refrigerator?

These waffles are a great choice for meal preparation as they stay fresh in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4-5 days. Simply pop them out of the toaster and reheat.

If you want to freeze in large batches, they will last in the refrigerator for 3-4 months. Just make sure to keep them in a closed bag or container to prevent the refrigerator from burning. You can then keep them overnight in the refrigerator or cook them from the freezer in the toaster.
