Almond Flour Waffles With Berries (Printable)
Light, fluffy almond flour waffles with fresh mixed berries and a drizzle of maple — gluten-free, quick breakfast.
# What You Need:
→ Waffle Batter
01 - 2 cups almond flour
02 - 2 large eggs
03 - 1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
04 - 2 tbsp melted butter or coconut oil
05 - 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
06 - 1 tsp vanilla extract
07 - 1 tsp baking powder
08 - 1/4 tsp salt
→ Topping
09 - 1 cup mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
10 - 2 tbsp maple syrup or honey (optional)
11 - Powedred sugar, for dusting (optional)
# Directions:
01 - Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly distributed.
03 - In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then mix in the almond milk, melted butter, honey, and vanilla extract until well combined.
04 - Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth, lump-free batter forms.
05 - Lightly grease the waffle iron. Pour in approximately 1/2 cup of batter per waffle, or enough to cover the surface. Close the iron and cook for 3 to 5 minutes until golden and crisp. Repeat with the remaining batter.
06 - Serve hot, topped with fresh mixed berries and a drizzle of maple syrup or a light dusting of powdered sugar, if desired.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- The batter comes together in one bowl with zero fuss, making it perfect for sleepy weekend mornings when measuring feels ambitious.
- Almond flour gives these waffles a tender crumb and nutty depth that regular flour never quite achieves.
02 -
- Almond flour batter is thicker than traditional batter, so do not thin it out or your waffles will spread too thin and lose their fluffiness.
- Resist the urge to peek early because opening the iron before the waffle sets will tear it apart and leave you with a crumbly mess.
03 -
- Let the batter rest for five minutes before cooking so the almond flour fully hydrates and the texture becomes impossibly tender.
- If your waffles stick, brush the iron with melted coconut oil instead of spray, which can build up and cause sticking over time.
