Ingredients

2 cups blanched almond flour
2 ripe bananas, mashed
3 large eggs
2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
as needed cooking spray or coconut oil (for waffle iron)

Instructions

1

Preheat your waffle iron according to manufacturer instructions and brush or spray with cooking spray or coconut oil (for waffle iron).
2

In a large bowl, mash 2 mashed ripe bananas until smooth. Add 3 large eggs, 2 tbsp melted coconut oil, and 1 tsp vanilla extract and whisk until combined.
3

Add 2 cups blanched almond flour, 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/2 tsp baking soda, and 1/4 tsp salt to the bowl and stir until a smooth batter forms. The batter will be thicker than regular waffle batter.
4

Pour enough batter to fill your waffle iron (about 1/2 cup per standard waffle). Close the lid and cook for 4 to 5 minutes until deep golden brown and crispy. Do not open the iron early or the waffles may stick.
5

Carefully remove the waffles and serve immediately with fresh fruit, maple syrup, or nut butter of choice.

Does Almond Flour Banana Waffles contain tree nuts?

Yes: 2 cups blanched almond flour. The full allergen list for this entry is eggs and tree nuts. Where the nuts are a garnish or a texture, toasted sunflower or pumpkin seeds stand in. Packaged ingredients vary by brand, so check labels if the allergy is serious.

Can I freeze Almond Flour Banana Waffles?

It is not a good candidate. Refrigerate what is left of Almond Flour Banana Waffles within two hours and eat it within three days. Reheat uncovered in a 400 F oven (or an air fryer) for a few minutes to bring the crust back; the microwave softens it.
