Ingredients

For the Waffles:

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup Paleo-friendly vanilla protein powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • pinch salt
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk or any dairy-free milk
  • 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • to taste fresh berries, sliced bananas, nuts, or maple syrup optional toppings

Instructions

Preparation Steps:

  • Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients - Start by measuring out all your ingredients. Having everything ready will make the process much smoother.
  • Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients - In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk them together until well blended.
  • Step 3: Combine the Wet Ingredients - In another bowl, beat the eggs. Then add the almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Mix well until everything is fully incorporated.
  • Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures - Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine.
  • Step 5: Preheat the Waffle Iron - Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. You want it nice and hot for crispy waffles.
  • Step 6: Cook the Waffles - Lightly grease the waffle iron with a little coconut oil or cooking spray. Pour the appropriate amount of batter into the preheated waffle iron, close the lid, and cook until golden brown, usually about 3-5 minutes.
  • Step 7: Serve and Enjoy! - Carefully remove the waffles from the iron and serve immediately with your favorite toppings.
