Ingredients

Batter

  • 1 1/3 cups blanched almond flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tbsp granulated monk fruit sweetener
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the iron

  • Cooking spray

Directions

  1. Heat your waffle iron to medium-high and let it fully preheat.
  2. Add all the batter ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth, about 30 seconds. Or beat the cream cheese and eggs together with a hand mixer, then whisk in the rest.
  3. Let the batter rest 5 minutes so the almond flour hydrates.
  4. Coat the waffle iron with cooking spray. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto each section of a standard square iron, or follow your iron's fill line.
  5. Cook 4 to 5 minutes, until the steam slows to a wisp and the waffles are deep golden. Cook them a minute past when they first look done for the crispiest edges.
  6. Transfer to a wire rack in a single layer while you cook the rest. Stacking them traps steam and softens them. Makes 8 waffles.
Tip: Leftovers freeze well. Reheat frozen waffles in the toaster, not the microwave, and they come back crisp.
Dad jokeI couldn't decide what to make for breakfast, so I just kept waffling.
