    Super easy to make. My own low calorie / carb waffles.

    r1j6u9cdu0ol.jpg

    Get:
    2 tbsp Coconut Flour
    2 tbsp Almond or Cashew Milk
    0.50 tsp Baking Powder
    1 tsp Stevia or any Sweetener
    3 Egg Whites

    Make:
    Whip the egg whites until nice and firm.
    Mix all the other ingredients and add to the egg whites.
    Gently fold everything until mixed through.
    Spray your waffle maker and add the mix.
    Cook as you would any other waffle.

    Note:
    #1. In my waffle maker, this makes more than one. If I dump the mix into it it will grow and spill and make a mess. I now make two smaller sized waffles (as like the one in the picture).
    #2. I buy egg whites in a carton and utilize the entire box at once by adjusting the base recipe. I bake them all and freeze by placing a wax paper sheet in between. They freeze and re-heat beautifully and dont loose the texture at all.

    This is brilliant. Totally doing this. I stalk you in the "show me your food thread" and the volume eating one, too, so this is 100% legit. Not creepy or anything.

    Is the calorie count for the whole mix? Like, seriously I could get two medium-ish waffles for 115 calories? There's a big-*kitten* bag of coconut flour at Costco and I could have waffles for life with this recipe.

    Yeap. And trust me, if you top it with stuff, one will be enough for a nice after dinner snack.

    I made some this morning. They are in the freezer because I want to toast it nice and crispy for breakfast in a few hours. I used real eggs (because that's what I had on hand) and agave (because that's what I had on hand). They look gorgeous and smell delicious and getting two of those big bad boys for fewer calories and cost than the store-bought gives me a happy. Came out to 131 calories per 2 waffles with my adjustments.

    These are definitely going in the meal prep rotation. Thank you!

    Just made this for the first time. Won't be the last. Made pancakes and ate them all. Next time I will try with almond flour. I know it will change the texture, so just thinking it through.

    They are in the Natural food section at Kroger, not with the regular waffles. Natural section is usually located near produce.

    When I make waffles I use corn flour mostly. Naturally gluten free without all the crap they put in "gluten free" frozen waffles.
    If family is visiting I'll use a more traditional recipe.
    My most decadent waffles are my Chocolate Chip Chocolate Cake Waffles.

    I make my own as it's basically pancake mix. It's the toppings that usually makes it calorific imo... but they're nice as a treat :smile:

    Kashi is also my recommendation. I buy them at Kroger.

    IKEA waffles are the bomb.com.

    I legit go to IKEA to shop for groceries at least once a month. Most of their food weighs accurately (to the gram!) to what the serving size is, and it's just super tasty.

    I just remembered I don't have a waffle maker.

    You can make the same recipe for "pancake"

    This is what I did. I also had some very mature bananas to use up, so I used them instead of sweeter, used an entire egg instead of 3 egg whites. It came out great, and I ate 2 with raspberries on top. The calories were around 220.
