Introduction

These fluffy Paleo almond waffles are a delicious, grain-free breakfast option that combine the nutty flavor of almond flour with a light, airy texture. Perfect for those following a Paleo lifestyle or anyone craving a wholesome waffle treat.

Two white plates hold a single golden-brown waffle each, shaped like a flower with eight petals and a crisp grid pattern. On top of each waffle is a thick swirl of smooth chocolate spread, dark and glossy, crowned with four fresh blackberries arranged close together. Around the plates are light dustings of cocoa powder, scattered unevenly on the white marbled texture beneath. Two silver forks sit next to the plates, one near each, with a soft white napkin featuring a subtle gray floral design placed near the right fork. The scene is clean and bright with soft natural light, showing the texture and rich colors clearly. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

160 grams Almond Flour
4 tablespoons Tapioca Starch
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/4 teaspoon Vanilla Bean Pod
1 pinch Salt
2 tablespoons Honey
2 Large Eggs
100 milliliters Cashew Milk
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 teaspoon Coconut Butter
Coconut Butter, to taste (for greasing)

Instructions

Step 1: In a large bowl, mix together the almond flour, tapioca starch, baking powder, salt, and vanilla bean pod until well combined.
Step 2: Separate the eggs, placing the yolks in one bowl and the whites in another.
Step 3: Whisk the egg whites until foamy. Gradually add the honey, then the vanilla extract, continuing to whisk until soft peaks form. Set aside.
Step 4: Add the egg yolks, coconut butter, and cashew milk to the dry ingredients. Whisk until smooth. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into this batter, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
Step 5: Preheat and lightly grease your waffle iron with coconut butter. Pour 1 to 2 tablespoons of batter onto the waffle iron, and cook according to your machine’s instructions. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Step 6: Serve the waffles immediately with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, nut butter, or maple syrup.

Tips & Variations

For a dairy-free alternative, use coconut milk instead of cashew milk.
Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for extra warmth and spice.
If you prefer a sweeter waffle, increase the honey slightly or serve with a drizzle of maple syrup.
Gently folding in the egg whites will help keep the waffles light and fluffy.

Storage

Store any leftover waffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, toast them in a toaster or warm in a skillet over medium heat until crisp. For longer storage, freeze the waffles in a single layer, then transfer to a sealed bag; reheat from frozen as needed.

How to Serve

Two white plates each hold a single heart-shaped waffle with a golden brown, crisp texture. On top of each waffle is a creamy, smooth layer of chocolate spread in the center, topped with four fresh, dark purple blackberries arranged close together. Light dustings of cocoa powder are sprinkled around the plates and on the white marbled surface beneath them. To the left of the left plate is a silver fork, and to the right of the right plate is another silver fork resting on a folded beige and white patterned cloth. The composition is neat and visually balanced. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use a different type of milk instead of cashew milk?

Yes, you can substitute cashew milk with other dairy-free milks like almond, coconut, or oat milk depending on your preference and dietary needs.

How do I keep the waffles crispy after cooking?

Place cooked waffles on a wire rack instead of stacking them to prevent sogginess. You can also reheat them in a toaster or oven to restore crispness.
