Why I Choose Almond Flour?

When I’m taking a break from my sourdough baking I always choose Almond flour as my substitute. Almond flour is made from finely milled almonds (usually blanched almonds) and they a bring an enormous nutritional value to the table that regular wheat flour just can’t match. Read more about why almond flour is a healthier choice for your waffles.

Naturally Gluten Free

For many people who have gluten sensitivities or celiac disease, almond flour is a great alternative choice to traditional wheat flour. Because it’s made from almonds it’s naturally gluten free, making it perfect for those who need to avoid gluten in all forms, while still enjoying their favorite foods.

Rich in Nutrition

Almond flour is a powerhouse of nutrients. Almond flour has a rich source of vitamin E, which is a potent antioxidant which is great for the immune system and skin health. Almonds are packed with magnesium, which helps regulate blood sugar and supports muscle and nerve function. You can also find calcium, which supports bone health too.

Low in Carbs, High in Protein

If you’re watching you carb intake like me, almond flour waffles are a great alternative to traditional wheat flour-made waffles. Almond Flour is low in carbs and high in protein, which makes it a filling and satiating option, especially for those following a low-carb or keto diet plan.

Healthy Fats

Almond flour is rich in monosaturated fats which help reduce bad cholesterol levels and improve heart health. These fats are essential for overall well-being and help slower more sustained sources of energy, unlike quick sugar spike and crash from more refined flours.

Tips

  • Adjust the heat to the proper setting for your personal stovetop. Whatever medium-low is for your stove top adjust it to that.
  • Gluten-free pancakes can burn very fast so ensure your heat isn’t too high. adjust the heat as you cook.
  • You can tell if your heat is too high if your butter starts burning in the pan, this means it’s time to turn down your heat.
  • Use a hand blender for even quicker prep time to make the batter.
  • Tapioca flour be swapped out for potato starch or arrowroot powder.
  • For a vegan option instead of eggs,butter and milk use: almond milk,flax egg and avocado oil.

What You’ll Need

  • Almond Flour: I buy fine or super fine blanched almond flour.
  • Coconut Flour: I choose Viva Naturals Coconut flour it’s the finest milled coconut I’ve ever had
  • Eggs: Be sure to use good quality eggs, I used pastured raised eggs
  • Tapioca Starch: use finely milled tapioca starch for the best results.
  • Vanilla Extract: Very important don’t skip this item.
  • Organic Coconut Sugar: Use any low glycemic sugar replacement with a 1:1 ratio.
  • Baking Powder: very important Needed for rising.
  • Himalayan Salt: I use Himalayan pink salt for everything.
  • A2 Full Milk: Swap out for plant-based milk using the same ratio if needed.
  • Melted Grass-fed Butter: Use a high quality butter, preferably grass fed butter
  • Water: I always use unfiltered water but any clean water on hand is fine.
  • Baking Soda: This is needed to give that familiar pancake texture, make sure your baking soda is food grade.

Notes

Tips:

  • Certain waffle makers often cause waffles to stick to the waffle mold. Spraying the waffle iron before adding the batter helps the waffle slip off the iron mold better, when time to remove it.
  • To add toppings pour one scoop of batter onto the waffle iron. Then place blueberries, chocolate chips or bananas. Next scoop more batter and layer it on top and close the waffle iron.
  • you can swap out the melted butter for melted refined coconut oil. Use refined because it will not turn solid when cold ingredients touch it.
