Gluten Free Waffles

This recipe is recopied from this site: Tana Amen (or tanaamen.com). It is the basic recipe, but I have broken down some of the instructions. The egg content of these waffles means they are higher in protein than the average waffle.
Course Breakfast, Side Dish
Servings 8

Equipment

  • Waffle Maker
  • Stand Mixer (not required, but it is easier to beat egg whites)

Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients

  • 10 eggs (separated)
  • 13.5 ounce full fat coconut milk

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cups almond flour
  • ½ cup golden flax meal
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Final Ingredient

  • ¼ cup melted coconut oil

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Place eggs in a bowl of warm water for a minimum of 10 minutes to bring to room temperature.
  • Melt coconut oil and set aside. (Do not forget to add it at the every end!)
  • Separate eggs putting whites into the mixer bowl and yolks in another bowl.
  • Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Remove whites from the mixer bowl and set aside in another bowl.
  • While egg whites are mixing, combine all dry ingredients (almond flour, flax meal, and baking powder) in a separate bowl.

Wet Ingredients

  • Beat egg yolks until creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the coconut milk and continue mixing.

Final Steps

  • Slowing add dry ingredient mixture to wet mixture, beating slowly.
  • Add the melted coconut oil. Once mixed in, remove the bowl from mixer.
  • Fold in the egg whites in batches to create a fluffy mix.

Waffle Maker

  • You may desire to grease the waffle maker. Use a small amount of coconut oil. Depending on your waffle maker, add approximately a 1/2 cup of batter. Our waffle maker has a green light when done, but we have found leaving them on a little longer results in a crisper waffle.
  • Place the waffles that are done in a warmed oven.

Notes

These can be a sweet breakfast treat, but we also like to eat them at dinner with chicken and waffles!
