Equipment

  • Waffle Iron
  • small bowl
  • Medium Bowl
  • Large Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 3 tablespoon monk fruit sweetener
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 4 large eggs room temperature
  • 1/2 cup avocado oil or coconut oil melted and cooled can also use 4oz. vegan dairy free butter melted and cooled
  • 1/2 cup full fat coconut milk or other thick alternative like cashew milk or coconut cream
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice or lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon stevia glycerite/liquid stevia
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries

Instructions
 

  • Start by preheating your waffle maker according to the waffle iron’s instructions so it is nice and hot when the batter is ready.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients of almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure everything is evenly distributed and the almond flour is broken down and not in clumps.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, unsweetened almond milk, melted vegan butter or coconut oil, vanilla extract, and lemon juice.
  • Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the large bowl of dry ingredients, making sure to stir until combined. Let the waffle batter sit for 5 minutes to soak up the liquid.
  • Do not fold the frozen blueberries into the batter, but instead, put them in a small bowl and wait until the batter is in the waffle iron.
  • Lightly grease the waffle plates with coconut oil cooking spray or a nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
  • Spoon the batter onto the preheated waffle maker, using about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of batter per waffle, depending on the size of your waffle iron. Since this batter will not spread very much in the waffle iron, make sure you spread the batter around to almost the edge.
  • Last step is to sprinkle a few blueberries onto the batter before you close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown.
  • Cook for 3-5 minutes, but cooking times may vary depending on your waffle maker. Watch the steam and check only when the steam has subsided down to almost none.
  • For best results, carefully remove the waffles from the waffle maker and let them sit on a wire rack for a minute or two to firm up before serving up with your favorite toppings. This helps the ingredients to settle resulting in crispy waffles rather than soggy waffles.
  • Keep any leftover waffles in an airtight container or zip top bag in the fridge up to 5 days to preserve their delicious flavor.
  • You can easily freeze them on a baking sheet flat for 1 hour then transfer to a freezer safe bag up to 3 months. To reheat, put frozen waffles into a toaster for a few minutes and then eat. You can also reheat cooked waffles in the waffle iron on low.

Can I use fresh blueberries instead of frozen ones?  Yes, you can use fresh blueberries if they’re in season. Fresh blueberries tend to hold their shape better than frozen but since you are putting them in AFTER pouring the waffle batter into the waffle iron it will not make a difference.
What can I use if I don't have almond flour?  If you don't have almond flour, you can substitute with another gluten-free flour like oat flour, brown rice flour or a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend. If you only have gluten free oats, you can whir them in a blender to make oat flour easily. Never substitute with coconut flour though as that requires a different amount of liquids to turn out.
Can I freeze leftover waffles?  Yes, you can freeze leftover waffles. Let them cool completely, then lay them flat in single layers on a baking sheet for one hour in the freezer to flash freeze. Once frozen, place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. To reheat, pop them in the toaster or toaster oven until heated through and crispy.
Can I use a regular waffle maker instead of a Belgian waffle maker?  Yes, you can use a regular waffle maker. The main difference will be the thickness and texture of the waffles. Belgian waffle makers create thicker, fluffier waffles, while regular waffle makers produce thinner, crispier ones.
What can I use instead of vegan butter?  If you don’t have vegan butter, you can use coconut oil, olive oil, or another plant-based butter substitute. If you are not concerned with being dairy free you can use regular melted butter just fine.
