Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 160 gram Almond Flour
- 4 tablespoon Tapioca Starch
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Vanilla Bean Pod
- 1 pinch Salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 Large Eggs
- 2 tablespoon Honey
- 100 milliliter Cashew Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 teaspoon Coconut Butter
For Cooking
- Coconut Butter, to taste (for greasing the waffle machine)
Instructions
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca starch, baking powder, salt, and vanilla bean pod until evenly mixed.
- Separate Eggs: Carefully separate the egg whites from the yolks, placing each in separate bowls.
- Whip Egg Whites: Using a mixer, whisk the egg whites until they become foamy. Gradually add honey and vanilla extract while continuing to whisk until soft peaks form. Set aside this meringue mixture.
- Mix Wet and Dry Combine: Add the egg yolks, coconut butter, and cashew milk into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Whisk until smooth and fully combined.
- Fold in Egg Whites: Gently fold the whipped egg white mixture into the wet and dry batter mixture to maintain the airiness and create a fluffy texture.
- Prepare Waffle Maker: Preheat your waffle machine and lightly grease it with coconut butter to prevent sticking.
- Cook Waffles: Spoon about 1-2 tablespoons of batter onto the waffle machine. Close and cook until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with remaining batter.
- Serve: Serve the waffles immediately with your favorite toppings for a fresh paleo breakfast experience.
Notes
- Use room temperature eggs for better whipping.
- Be gentle when folding the egg whites to keep the batter light.
- If you don’t have a waffle maker, you can use a stovetop skillet to make pancakes instead.
- Cashew milk can be substituted with other nut milks if desired.
- Store any leftover waffles in an airtight container and reheat in a toaster or oven for best results.
