Keto Lemon Waffles
Get ready to enjoy a delicious waffle with the refreshing taste of lemon!
Ingredients
- For the Waffles:
- Almond flour: 1 cup
- Coconut flour: 2 tablespoons
- Baking powder: 1 teaspoon
- Salt: a pinch
- Eggs: 4 large, yolks and whites separated
- Heavy whipping cream: ¼ cup full-fat
- Butter: ¼ cup melted and slightly cooled
- Sugar substitute: 3 tablespoons
- Lemon zest: from 1 medium lemon
- Lemon juice: 1 tablespoon fresh
- Vanilla extract: ½ teaspoon
- Coconut oil: as needed for greasing the waffle iron
- For Garnish:
- Whipping cream: as needed unsweetened
- Berries: as desired fresh berries or fresh strawberries
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the heavy whipping cream, melted butter, sugar substitute, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Whisk well until the mixture is smooth.
- Gradually add the egg yolk mixture to the dry ingredients and whisk until a smooth, consistent batter forms.
- In a clean, dry bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. This step is important for making the waffles light and crispy.
- Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the waffle batter. Use a spatula and fold with an upward motion to keep the air in the egg whites. Be careful not to overmix.
- Heat your waffle iron and grease it lightly with melted butter or coconut oil to prevent sticking.
- Pour a suitable amount of the waffle batter onto the hot waffle iron and close it.
- Bake the waffle until it is golden brown and fully cooked. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Serve the Keto Lemon Waffles warm, garnished with unsweetened whipping cream and a few fresh berries or strawberries, if desired.
