Ketogenic diets are characterized by having a low carbohydrate intake and increasing the consumption of protein and fat. If you are a lover of sweets, but want to continue staying in ketosis, the ideal is to find recipes that do not provide too many carbohydrates and have zero sugars. One of the most consumed sweets in the world is waffles, so we will teach you how to prepare the best keto waffles in a simple way.
Traditional waffles are made with wheat flour and coated with syrup, becoming a sugar and carbohydrate bomb. In this case, almond flour and egg whites are two lighter ingredients.
And while we like it with a little chocolate, you can also add flavorings or create a salty keto waffle. Grilled eggs are also very good with this dough. Even if you make more than you should, you can put them in the freezer and consume them in another snack or breakfast.
Ingredients
- 1 cup of almond flour
- 3 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons of butter
- 1/3 cup of milk
- 1/4 cup unsweetened nut butter
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon of stevia
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Preparation
Heat the waffle iron to 210ºC and lightly grease with coconut oil, olive or butter.
In a small bowl, mix the almond flour, baking powder, salt, and stevia.
Add the egg whites and beat until they double in volume.
In a third bowl, put the egg yolks, the nut butter, the melted butter, the vanilla essence and the milk.
Add the dry ingredients and mix until well combined. Be careful with the egg whites, use a large spoon to move them, but without removing all the air from the beaten whites.
Put 1/4 of the batter in the preheated waffle iron and close the lid. Let it cook until the waffle is golden brown on both sides. This may take a few minutes or a maximum of 10, depending on your waffle maker.
