Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 cup of almond flour, 1/2 cup of plain yogurt, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk these dry ingredients together until they are well blended.
- In a separate bowl, crack the 2 large eggs and whisk them until they are fully beaten. Add the 1/2 cup of plain yogurt and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the eggs, mixing until smooth and well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixture together using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few small lumps.
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. If necessary, lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.
- Once the waffle iron is hot, pour an appropriate amount of the batter onto the center of the waffle iron, typically about 1/2 to 3/4 cup, depending on the size of your waffle iron.
- Close the waffle iron and cook the waffles for about 3-5 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Cooking time may vary based on your specific waffle iron, so keep an eye on them.
- Carefully remove the waffles from the waffle iron using a fork or tongs, and place them on a plate. Repeat the process with the remaining batter until all the waffles are cooked.
- Serve the almond flour yogurt waffles warm. They can be topped with your favorite low-carb toppings such as fresh berries, sugar-free syrup, or a dollop of additional yogurt.
- Enjoy your delicious, low-carb, and gluten-free almond flour yogurt waffles!
Tips
- Use room temperature ingredients to ensure smooth mixing and better texture.
- Don't overmix the batter - some small lumps are perfectly fine and will help keep the waffles light and fluffy.
- Preheat your waffle iron completely before adding batter to ensure crispy edges.
- For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of cinnamon or a few drops of almond extract to the batter.
- If the batter seems too thick, thin it out with a little extra yogurt or a splash of almond milk.
- Let the waffles rest for a minute after cooking to help them crisp up and become easier to remove from the waffle iron.
- These waffles freeze beautifully - make a double batch and reheat in a toaster for quick weekday breakfasts.
- For added protein, consider using Greek yogurt instead of regular plain yogurt.
