Paleo Banana Waffles

Paleo Banana Waffles



Ingredients

• ½ cup coconut flour
• ½ cup almond flour
• 1 Tbs flaxseed meal
• 1 cup coconut milk
• 3 eggs
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 ripe banana, mashed
• 1 tsp vanilla
• ½ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp cinnamon
• 1 Tbs raw honey or maple syrup (optional, as the banana provides a nice natural sweetener)
• fruit for topping (optional)


Nut Allergy Substitute: If you have a nut allergy, change the recipe to ½ cup of coconut flour + 1/3 cup flax seed meal + ½ cup of coconut milk + 2 eggs. This does make the waffles a little more “spongy”, but they’re still delicious!


Instructions:

1. Heat up the waffle iron
2. Beat eggs in a medium bowl (I like to use a hand mixer to make it fluffier, but a hand whisk works fine)
3. Add in the banana, vanilla, coconut milk and honey and whisk together until thoroughly combined
4. In a separate bowl, mix together all the dry ingredients (coconut flour, almond flour, flaxseed meal, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon)
5. Slowly pour the dry ingredients into the wet and continue to whisk / blend together {note: the consistency should be thicker than pancake mix, but not clumpy. If it’s too thick add more coconut milk. Working with coconut flour can be difficult because a little goes a long way, as it is very absorbent.}
6. Pour batter into the waffle maker and serve hot with delicious maple syrup! Feel free to top with fruit, like bananas, strawberries or blueberries! I like fruit on my waffles, but the Mr. doesn’t. He loves his butter & maple syrup!
