Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ginger
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp cloves
- 1/4 tsp cardamom
- 1/4 tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 3 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 4 large eggs
- 3 tbsp almond milk
Instructions
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine almond flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and cardamom. Whisk thoroughly to evenly distribute the spices and leavening agent throughout the almond flour.
- Add wet ingredients: Pour in the extra virgin olive oil, almond milk, pure vanilla extract, and crack in the eggs. Mix well until a smooth batter forms without lumps.
- Preheat waffle maker: Turn on your waffle maker and set it to a medium heat, approximately between settings 2 and 3 if your machine uses numeric levels. This ensures the waffles cook evenly without burning.
- Prepare waffle maker: Generously grease the inside of the waffle maker with olive oil spray or brush it thoroughly with extra virgin olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Cook waffles: Spoon about 5 to 6 tablespoons of batter onto the preheated waffle maker, then close the lid. Cook until the indicator light signals the waffle is done. Carefully remove the waffle using tongs or a silicone spatula.
- Keep warm: Place cooked waffles on a baking sheet and keep them warm in the oven set to its lowest temperature while you finish cooking the remaining batter.
- Serve: Serve these spiced almond flour waffles warm with your favorite keto-friendly toppings such as sugar-free syrup, fresh berries, or nut butters.
Notes
- Adjust the waffle maker temperature based on your model to avoid overcooking or undercooking.
- Use a silicone brush or olive oil spray to ensure waffles do not stick to the waffle iron.
- These waffles freeze well; store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in a toaster or oven.
- Almond milk can be substituted with other plant-based milks if preferred.
- To keep it strictly keto, avoid sweet toppings with added sugars.
