    These waffles are grain free and are packed with healthy fats and protein.

    Both waffles and pancakes are made regularly at my house, usually on the weekends. We alternate between the two breakfast foods, and always like them topped with butter, pancake syrup plus fresh berries on the side.

    You need 8 simple ingredients to make these waffles, and I'm betting that you already have most of them, if not all of them, in your kitchen. For another simple recipe, try these almond flour scones.

    Recipe ingredients

    top down view of ingredients in almond flour waffles

    Eggs - This waffles recipe isn't heavily egg-based like some are, but you do need a couple of eggs to make the batter and help everything come together.

    Vanilla Extract - The flavor of vanilla is a must when I make waffles. It smells so good.

    Granulated Sugar - For a touch of sweetness.

    Heavy Cream - Most waffle recipes call for milk, but we love using heavy cream. You can use milk in place of the heavy cream and water, if you like.

    Water - To give the batter the right consistency for spreading into the waffle iron.

    Almond Flour - Blanched, extra fine almond flour will give you the fluffiest waffles.

    Baking Soda - This common baking ingredients gives the lift as they cook.

    Salt - Just a bit of salt helps to balance the sweetness of the recipe.

    Cooking Spray - You'll need to this to grease your waffle iron, unless you're using a very good non-stick iron.

    Step by step instructions

    a collage of 4 photos showing the steps to make almond flour waffles
    1. Preheat your waffle maker while you mix the batter. In a medium bowl, mix together the eggs, vanilla, sugar, heavy cream, and water.
    2. Slowly add in the flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir until the batter is smooth. The batter will be thick, and likely thicker than a traditional waffle batter.
    3. If needed, spray the waffle iron with oil or drizzle with melted butter. Pour about ½ cup of batter into the waffle maker, spreading it out so that it cooks evenly.
    4. Cook the waffles for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.

    These numbered steps match the numbered photos above and are for illustration purposes. For the complete list of ingredients and instructions, please see the printable recipe card below.

    Expert tips

    When measuring almond flour, it's important to be careful not to compact it, which means that you shouldn't dip your measuring cup into the bag or canister. Instead, stir your flour first. Then use a spoon to scoop the flour into your measuring cup. Level the cup with the flat side of the knife.

    If you store almond flour in the fridge or freezer (which is good practice if you don't use it often), you should let it come to room temperature before measuring and baking with it. Cold almond flour behaves differently, and it won't absorb liquid at the same rate.

    Variations to try

    These waffles are great plain with a little maple syrup, but why stop there.

    Berries: we love raspberries, strawberries and blueberries. You can use as a topping or mix in your batter. You can also place a cup of frozen raspberries in a small pot on low heat. Within 10 minutes you will have a perfect raspberry compote.

    Chocolate: mix chocolate chips into your batter or pour some melted chocolate on top of your waffles.

    Whipped Cream: Take your waffles to the next level. We love making our own, it's so simple.

    Chopped nuts: walnuts and pecans are a great topping. For a special treat, make keto candied pecans.

    Storage instructions

    Fridge: Always allow your waffles to cool before placing in an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

    Freezer: Frozen waffles are super convenient, and just like those toaster waffles that you ate as a kid! Place the waffles on a sheet pan to freeze them separately. After an hour or so you can remove them from the pan and place them in a zip-top bag in the freezer. Freeze for no longer than 3 months.

    Reheat: To reheat frozen waffles, use the toaster, toaster oven, or air fryer to get them crispy again. The microwave will work too in a pinch.

    Equipment

    Prevent your screen from going dark

    Instructions
     

    • Pre-heat your waffle maker.
    • In a medium bowl mix together the eggs, vanilla, sugar, heavy cream, and water.
    • Slowly add in the almond flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir until the batter is smooth. Keto waffle batter will be thick. If it's too thick, add a tablespoon or two of water.
    • Spray the waffle maker with oil or drizzle with melted butter. Pour about ½ cup of batter in the waffle maker, spreading the batter out so it cooks evenly.
    • Cook for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.

    Notes

    • Your waffle iron might be different than mine! Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for questions specific to how to use it. You may also get a different amount of waffles depending on the size of your iron.
    • Grease the waffle iron with cooking spray, oil, or butter, unless you're using a non-stick waffle iron. In that case, no oil should be necessary.
    • This recipe was developed to work specifically with almond flour. No substitutions are recommended.
    • This is a sweet waffle recipe. You can leave out the sweetener to use waffles for savory applications.
    • Leftover waffles can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Can also be frozen for up to 3 months. Reheat in your toaster or toaster oven.

      Can you use homemade almond milk instead of heavy cream if allergic to dairy?

        Hi Georgie,
        Yes, you can use homemade almond milk instead of the heavy cream. Use 3/4 cup almond milk, as you will also be replacing the water in the recipe. Hope that helps.

        Hi Dena,
        Yes, you can freeze them. We like to pop them in the toaster to reheat them. Enjoy!
