Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings 12 waffles

Equipment

  • Waffle iron
  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Medium Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour (superfine)
  • 3 tablespoons oat fiber
  • 3/4 cup whey protein powder (unflavored)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt (fine grind)
  • 1 cup almond milk (unsweetened)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and cooled)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, oat fiber, whey protein powder, baking powder, and kosher salt until evenly combined.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the almond milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and melted cooled butter until smooth.
  • Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes; it will thicken slightly.
  • Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per waffle onto the hot waffle iron (adjust amount for your iron). Cook according to your waffle iron's directions until golden and cooked through.
  • Remove waffles carefully and serve with desired toppings.

Notes

  • You may need to adjust the liquid amount to reach desired batter consistency.
  • Start with 3/4 cup almond milk and add more if the batter is too thick.
  • The batter will thicken as it sits, so use slightly thinner batter if needed.
