This is my go-to waffle recipe. It has taken me a while to perfect, but I know it’s good when the rest of my family actually likes them and tries to steal bites when I make one for myself. Let’s face it, I like a lot of foods that the general public probably wouldn’t be into…this is a recipe the general public will be into.
I like this recipe as either a HUGE Belgian waffle or pancakes. The only difference between making these into waffles or pancakes will be the batter consistency (aka how much water you add). Waffle batter tends to be thicker and pancake batter thinner (it is basically personal preference).
I like to eat the whole recipe myself, but you can easily split it in half or eat as much as your macros allow. I also like to top my waffle with strawberries, but again that is personal preference.
If you don’t want to use syrup you can add a little stevia to the batter.
INGREDIENTS
40 grams Krusteaz gluten -free buttermilk pancake mix
1 Tbs coconut flour (pack it into the Tbs vs. the scoop and scrape method)
2 Tbs Fufu (Plantain Flour)
6 Tbs organic egg whites
Water (amount varies)
METHOD
Preheat your waffle maker or a pan on medium heat if making pancakes.
Place the pancake mix, coconut flour, and fufu flour into a mixing bowl. Add the egg whites and a little water to start (2-3Tbs). Mix.
The coconut flour will absorb a lot of water, so add water a little at a time until it reaches the right consistency. It seems like the amount of water I use is different every time, so play around with it. You can also add some more egg whites if you have more protein macros to use-up. I have used as little as 4Tbs and as much as 8Tbs with great results.
Spray coconut oil onto the waffle maker or pan.
Cook as you would any regular waffle or pancake.
