Love keto waffles? Want to know the secret to why I am winning waffle awards? Read on and scroll below to watch the quick cooking video.

Oooh, and did I mention these keto waffles are only 2.5g net carbs each AND can be frozen? You know what means, right? This is the perfect meal prepping recipe that’s KETO and convenient.

Whip up a batch and freeze for busy weekday mornings!

These have just been named "the best keto waffles in the world". "You are the keto goddess". Just a few ingredients and simple to make. Make a double or triple batch and freeze them. Make them sweet or savoury. #glutenfreewaffles #glutenfreepancakes #lowcarb #ketowaffles

Award Winning Keto Waffle Recipe

I found my waffle maker at the back of the cupboard a few weeks ago and was just about to throw it out when I looked at the old recipe I used to make all the time and decided to adapt the recipe we once loved, but remove the flour and the sugar.

Well, my waffle maker lived to see another day and my children say they like these keto waffles better than the high carb version we used to eat.

Each low-carb waffle is not much more than an egg, coconut flour and some butter (plus a few other ingredients to make them rise and tasty).

Keto Waffles – no sugars, no grains

My old recipe that arrived with the waffle maker, requires 2 cups of flour and 1 cup of sugar. I can’t believe I used to make them on a regular basis (and then there was the additional maple syrup or golden syrup that was added on top).

But most high carb recipes can be adapted if you know how. I replaced the wheat flour for coconut flour and replaced the sugar with sweetener and plenty of vanilla.

What resulted was the most amazing, light, fluffy, tasty keto waffles you can imagine. I have tried many low carb and grain free pancake recipes over the years, and I can hand on heart say these keto waffles are the best.

What’s even better, is that there are no complicated ingredients, no added sugars, it’s grain free, there’s no protein powders, and uses ingredients we will all have in our cupboards. So give these a go and see what you think.

They can even be frozen in between sheets of baking paper/parchment, in an airtight container.

Note On Nuts:: “The FDA lists coconut as a tree nut but in fact, coconut is a seed of a drupaceous fruit. Most people allergic to tree nuts can safely eat coconut. Coconut allergy is reasonably rare. If you are allergic to tree nuts, talk to your allergist before adding coconut to or eliminating coconut from your diet.”These have to be the easiest keto waffles out there, and no protein powders.

These keto waffles are so versatile. These waffles can be made in the waffle maker, or if you don’t have one, can be cooked in the frying pan, just like a pancake.

Add some cinnamon or ginger if you like different spices. Make an extra batch and use the keto waffles cold as a ‘sandwich’.

Cut each waffle in half, spread each half with cream cheese and add some berries inside as the filling. Or how about cutting them into individual pieces, toast them and use with a low carb ice cream.

Best Keto Waffle In The Entire World Award!

UPDATE:: I just have to share with you all the best comment I received today for these keto waffles. I will now be addressed forevermore as the Keto Goddess please 😉

I have been keto for three years now. Every darn time I see a new low carb/keto waffle recipe on Pinterest, I get all excited, dust off the waffle iron, throw some bacon in the oven, and about a half hour later the air is blue with expletives as I curse the liar who swore their recipe was just like the “real” waffles of my past. Up until now they have all been crap. Today was different. Big time different. Life altering different. Angels singing in my mouth different. Even my husband, who is unimpressed with all things Keto, couldn’t stop saying Wow… WOW…. These are legal???

Libby, you have just won the “Best Keto Waffle In The Entire World” award, which is apparently just my undying gratitude. You have changed my life for real, because now I can be excited about weekend breakfasts again. You are a Keto Goddess and I bow to you.

Thank You!

  1. Turned out great for me! I was looking for something low carb that wasn’t the egg-banana pancakes and found this recipe. I used the flour I had on hand (cup4cup gf) and sweetened with pure cane sugar. I folded in some blueberries after the egg whites and cooked these up like pancakes. When cooked through they are the beautiful golden-brown you’d want in a pancake! I can see these beating made savory with bacon, ham and/or cheese folded in without the vanilla or sugar. Yum!

    Reply

  2. These are fabulous! I added a bit of banana flavoring to the last batter – what more is there to say! Thanks for the great recipe.

    Reply

  3. Pretty good 🙂 They were a bit eggy but keep in mind the recipe calls for 5 medium eggs, I should have used 4. Added a bit extra coconut flour after the first two and it fixed that problem. Added a bit of raw cocoa powder too and they were great

    Reply

  4. Awesome flavor. Not too eggy as some say. But as someone else said, more of a french toast then a waffle. I am a big waffle guy and now on Keto. I realize, I will not have the same taste as a real waffle on Keto but these are a good substitute. Got to go in it with the idea, these will not get crispy. I tried cooking longer. I tried toasting after. Just go with what they are ….. great tasting french toast without the bread. Yummy. I will do them again. 4 stars not 5 since described as crispy which should be changed.

    Reply

  5. All the negative comments just baffle me. My guess is that there are a lot of people out there that just can’t cook, or follow directions in a recipe. These waffles are one of the best “keto” breakfast foods I’ve encountered. If you are complaining about them being eggy, you are doing something wrong. If you are complaining about them not being crisp, well when you find a “keto” waffle recipe where they come out crisp AND good and low carb, let us know.
    In the mean time, I’ll continue making this recipe and enjoying these low carb waffles.

  6. Absolutely wonderful change for breakfast. Was not wanting eggs and bacon (again) and I’m a very picky eater so decided, I’m going for this! I’m not a cook by any means! No kitchen skills so I’ve been really challenging myself! This was very easy and quite tasty! The only thing was that I only got 3 waffles instead of 5. Maybe I did something wrong?!?

    Reply

  7. Not a fan when they come out hot. But a day later after being in the refrigerator they are the closest thing to my mothers home made bread pudding. Great for a sweet snack. One waffle without anything else quenches and sweet cravings.

    Reply

    • These were amazing! I made sure to split the egg yolk and whites and followed the instructions. Only thing I did differently was used 4T of eyrthritol and 1T of Splenda. Also used HWC instead of milk. Then used sugar free syrup it was so yummy! Keep whisking the mix to keep it fluffy while you cook the waffles ❤️

  9. Are you sure it’s 125 gr of butter? A whole cup? I just made this recepy and it’s very greasy. And on the vídeo the butter is never mentioned

    Reply

  10. I am allergic to Coconut. It is the only thing I am allergic to. All other nuts are fine. Almond four… can it be substituted and if so is the quantity different?

    Reply

  11. These are definitely the best KETO waffles I’ve tried! Emphasis on the keto, because anyone attempting a low carb waffle just needs to come to terms with the fact that you are not going to achieve the texture of a traditional flour-based waffle. You’re just not, so adjust your expectations and appreciate these for what they are! I found the texture to be both fluffier, less grainy, and less “eggy” than other low carb recipes I’ve tried. Swerve was my sweetener of choice and the amount called for in this recipe, combined with the vanilla, gave them a good level of sweetness. My husband and I enjoyed them with a little bit of diced strawberries and a side of bacon. This will be my go-to weekend recipe – thank you!!

    Reply

    • YAY – the voice of reason! I totally agree. So many “products” we were once used to, are manufactured and designed with all added nasties to make things crisp, crunchy, or chewy etc. Once we understand that keto alternatives made with real food (not keto “products” which in some cases are just as bad as the originals) then we open up a whole new world of delicate, natural flavours and textures.

      Reply

    • I personally got flat and soggy waffles from this, no hint of crispness despite cooking longer also. Any tips?

      I followed the recipe and made sure not to beat the air out of egg whites

      Reply

  12. I’m new to Keto, and am going through the food list. I’ve noticed in some recipes (like this one) milk is listed as an ingredient, but it is on the Foods to Avoid list? I know for this recipe you can use cream, which is approved, but then why even list milk as a possibility? I am just trying to wrap my head around what I can and cannot eat. Thanks!

    Reply

    • Yes, you may use cream. The problem with all the “allowed” or “avoid” lists is that those lists generally list what is higher in carbs so should be avoided in large quantities. So you may use milk, it should just be in a small volume or calculated into your daily macros. What is important is having low enough carbs to be in nutritional ketosis.

      Reply

    • Sorry but I can’t find where to ask a question or even start a new comment. My question is when you say a waffle do you mean each quarter of the waffle or the entire waffle

      Reply

  13. “Come see why this recipe is award-winning.”

    I have come, I have seen, I am still waiting to find out 🤨

    I don’t know what kind of award this recipe would win, a waffle has GOT to be crispy. And just by looking at the pictures, it looks limp and soggy, eccch! It literally looks like I could use it like a sandwich wrap or a tortilla. That’s not the sort of thing that works for a waffle. I don’t even want to try the recipe.

    Reply

      • 😐😲😕☹☹agree
        Just rude!
        If you don’t have anything nice to say, but quiet. I want to make them more than ever NOW!

        • I made these this morning with some skepticism, and they came out delicious! The were not crispy, but they were tasty and and my husband said to keep the recipe and make those again! That right there is a compliment. I might try this recipe as pancakes also. I will definitely be making these again.

          Reply

    • The “waffles” ARE soggy. They are eggy and have a coarse texture once bitten into. This recipe doesn’t live up to the hype.

      Reply

  14. I’m often amazed at how different the reviews on the same recipe are, and I assume we are all absolutely sure that we followed it to a T. And I’m no different.

    Sooooo…these are delicious! I used heavy cream thinned just a smidge with unsweetened almond milk. Otherwise I followed it precisely.

    But fluffy? Crispy? Absolutely not. Not when cooked as my waffle iron instructed, or even twice as long. Not when I greased the iron with real butter before each batch. Not even after leaving out to cool. In fact, they were so flat that they barely retained any indentations at all! Fortunately, they are absorbent enough that the butter and keto syrup didn’t just run off.

    I made a double batch. Before I got half way through cooking them, the batter had begun to separate ..nothing that a gentle stir couldn’t fix, but unexpected.
    Because others have reported they didn’t crisp up in a toaster, I won’t hold out hope. But I’ll still try.

    Bottom line…will we eat them? Yes, definitely. As I said, they are delicious. (Possibly due to the large volume of pure vanilla extract. 😉)
    Will I make them again? I dunno…I think I’ll keep looking and experimenting.
    But if nothing better pops up, yeah, I’ll probably be back.

    Thanks for your hard work and sharing your recipe.

  15. This recipe is terrible. I couldn’t even force myself to eat one bite. Very snotty, gooey consistency. Complete waste of my time and groceries!

    Reply

  16. We followed the recipe but didn’t have the positive experience others noted below. They may be ok for keto waffles, but just don’t taste like waffles…or much of anything really. We make fabulous GF waffles, and these, well, they were tolerable covered in applesauce, cinnamon & fruit. And watch your waffle iron closely b/c they cook VERY quickly.

    Reply

  17. Very eggy, and not crisp at all. They were okay, but definitely not what I would consider a “waffle”. They tasted more like French toast sticks.

    Reply

  19. Thank you! This recipe is terrific. I ate mine plain (yum) and gave them to my kids with some strawberries and whipped cream and they were devoured in an instant. My middle child says these are the best waffles ever and #3’s face with the first bite was better than any words, which is great since he is my carb addict! Now I need to make a double batch and freeze them so the kids can have them before school.

  21. I must have done something wrong because my waffles tasted like I put an egg in the waffle maker and fried it. Couldn’t eat them.

    What did I do wrong?

  23. Wow am really pleased with these waffles. So tasty and easy to make. I used a sandwich toaster an they came out smashingly.

    Will use coconut cream next time xx

  24. OMG this is delicious. I finally found something Keto I like. Every bread I’ve tried I have either not liked or it’s just eh. These waffles were wonderful. I cut the recipe in half since I”m the only person on Keto in my family. I also totally forgot to to separate the eggs. I noticed this after mixing all ingredients. So I whisked it before putting it in my waffle iron. It didn’t matter. They were light and fluffy and delicious with nothing but butter on them. Thank you so much for making me a happy girl.

    Reply

    • Awesome!!! And did you know these are great to freeze? You can make an entire batch then freeze the remainder in an airtight container, with a piece of baking parchment in between each waffle, then bring one out at a time and pop them in your toaster! Genius I say!

      Reply

  26. I just made my second batch of these waffles after loving the first batch. This time around, I entered all the ingredients into MyFitnessPal so I could track this as one of my meals. I lightened up on the sweetener (4 tsp Eruthritol) for a 10 serving batch. I am finding that the carbs come out very high. Breakdown is as such…

    Carb 10.9g (13%)
    Fat 28.3g (78%)
    Protein 7g (9%)

    I am wondering why your recipe has the carb count so low?

    Thank you!

    • I use cronometer.com which has all the official databases and is very accurate. I personally don’t like MPF as there are too many user-added entries and depending on the country of origin of foods, the nutrition panel may show either total or net, but it may not be clear and therefore lead to very inaccurate calculations. I also don’t include erythritol in my calculations. It is a non-absorbable carbohydrate. This may explain the variations in calculated values.

  27. Absolutely amazing!!!! I am truly impressed. I’m always looking for a nut free recipe so that I may share with my toddler who has a nut allergy. He absolutely loved them. I added lilly’s Dark chocolate chips to them. What a sweet treat.
    Question: could we double the recipe and bake these into muffins?

    Reply

    • Yay – my absolute favourite comments are those that involve children discovering new recipes. He might also like my Paleo pancakes. My 11 yr old makes them most Saturday before football and adds 2 tbsp cocoa to make them chocolate flavour. As for making keto waffles into muffins? I’m not sure if that would work. I am guessing, but I think they would be more successful as mini muffins than traditionally-sized muffins, purely because the eggy buttery mixture can have a tendency to “split” which isn’t a problem in waffles as they are cooked both sides, but as a large muffin, you may find it in two layers.

  28. I used my regular waffle maker for this recipe. The batter was very thick (I did use heavy whipping cream) and would really only have made about 3 waffles, at best. However, despite the fact that I sprayed with Pam Coconut Oil Spray before cooking, the batter completely stuck to the waffle iron and I had to use a knife to scrape it from the iron.

    That said, the chunks I was able to salvage were sooooooo scrumptious! What an incredible treat…delicious!!! Any tips on how to prevent this in the future?

    Reply

    • I’m soooooo glad the chunks were delicious, despite the fact they stuck 🙁 . I’m wondering if you added enough butter to the recipe? My batter is generally medium in thickness and the butter (as it melts within the batter) makes the waffles almost non-stick. I also have a regular waffle machine (from Fly-Buys) and it makes 5. If your waffles are thick, then I also wonder if that is why they are sticking? You could even try cooking these in the frying pan too. Hope this helps.

      • Also whipping the egg whites properly and making sure not to crush them. I made a double batch using large farm eggs, and it came out amazing, if maybe a little dry.

        Reply

  29. I was pretty pleased with these! They did not crisp up for me but I don’t necessarily attribute that to the recipe. It does have over a stick of butter so I wasn’t expecting it to ever crisp up but we’ll see what the toaster does for the leftovers.
    One note to American readers: the recipe calls for 5 MEDIUM eggs. We often use large eggs here so this recipe only needs 4 large eggs. That may be why some makers are disappointed with the eggy taste.
    These have held me over during my trip with gestational diabetes but I can’t say I’ll be swapping my usual waffle recipe for these permanently.

    I can’t use sugar alcohols, is the bulk of the sweetener necessary for the recipe to turn out? I will add a couple of drops of monk fruit sweetener to sweeten the waffle. Can’t wait to try them!

        • Replying now (late Sunday night here). I approve and answer questions as often as I can but I do try my hardest to spend the weekend with my children and family 🙂 If you wish to use a different sweetener, by all means, go for it. I use the minimum sweetener so unlike sugar, it is not a bulking agent. Yes, you can use the sweetener drops of your choice. And as I mention in all my recipes, taste before baking then adjust to your tastebuds and sweet tooth. 🙂

  34. Can I use almond meal? Sorry if this was asked earlier, but I didn’t honestly want to read all of the comments

    Reply

  35. Sooooo I completely forgot the butter when I made these… But they turned out very tasty! They were just too limp and thin to my liking, a bit like pancakes. I put 1tsp maple extract and 1tsp vanilla, as well as almond butter instead of cream to save carbs (found these tips in the comments)! But yeah, the taste was good and not eggy at all even without the butter. Mine turned out at 1.3g Net carbs per waffle/pancake (I made 5 small waffles). Can’t wait to try these WITH the butter hahaha! I guess this butterless version would make a great low calorie, low carbs pancake/crepe version 🙂 (mine turned out to be 95 cals per serving)

  37. I was a little scared to try this recipe due to a few of the comments saying they were eggy or had a weird texture… but I decided to go ahead and give them a try anyway…. I’m so glad I did! Mine did not taste eggy at all and the texture was perfect! I made half of the recipe, subbed cream with almond milk to save on carbs, and used half the amount of vanilla and used maple extract for the other half 🙂 Really good. It made me close to 3 full waffles, and it was only 3 net carbs for the full stack!

  38. I made these tonight and I cook the first batch and they were a little bit limp so went to the second batch and I thought cook them a little longer add a little bit more to each of the sides to make it thicker and that seemed to work I did cut back on the stevia or swerve to two-and-a-half to my liking and they are as close to a waffle as I’ve tasted thanks so much for sharing

  40. I just made these and am eating them while I type. The texture is DEFINITELY not that of a waffle, so don’t get excited about that aspect of it. I followed the recipe to an absolute T and these are very dense. The coconut flour is very noticeable. They never firmed up. They are as soft as a soggy waffle. I tried leaving the 2nd round in longer to get crispier, but that doesn’t work. No matter how long I left them in, they never got crispy. They LOOKED crispy/brown, but they weren’t. I even took 2 out and put them in the toaster and they still never got crispy. I tried adding butter and they still tasted bland. I added chocolate morsels… still bland. I expected a lot more from this recipe with all the reviews. Maybe I’m just new to the taste of the low carb world, but these taste NOTHING like a waffle — at all.

    Reply

    • I made these per the recipe and they were crispy. I coked them on the higher setting on my waffle iron. Then I placed them on a cookie rack which worked out great. The next day I toasted the leftovers and made a BLT! This is by far the best “bready” type food for Keto. IM going to try thevrecioe savory. Maybe some thyme/rosemary and Trader Joe’s bagel seasoning with cream cheese. Yum.

    • Livia,

      I had the same experience with them being too floppy to satisfy me as a waffle, BUT they made great low-carb pancakes. I add 1/2 tsp ginger, 1/8 tsp nutmeg, and 1/4 tsp cinnamon to the batter and cut the sweetener to 3 tablespoons. Also, I by large eggs, so only use 4 rather than 5 medium called for in the recipe.

      Reply

  41. This is delicious! I used half vanilla and half almond extract. No sweetener!! Delicious 😋 o then tried with sugar free Carmel syrup!! Oh my goodness!!! Yummy 😋

    Reply

  42. Hi Libby – just made these and even though I wondered if it would taste eggy, it did turn out fab, and looked like the real thing when it came out of the waffle iron. I did a couple of tweeks which I was happy with – a tsp of psyllium powder and a teaspoon of apricot kernel oil for that almond essence taste that I love in baked goods.10/10! BTW I love your coconut flour based recipes!
    The other recipes I use heaps, which I think are pure genius, are the coconut shortbread cookies, focaccia bread made into bread rolls and the hot cross buns (I add a couple of drops of orange essential oils to it – amazing). Thanks for your genius! Love your work!!!

  52. Hi! I am so excited to try this!! I use Now Better Stevia Organic Extract Powder. I also have some Truvia packets. How do I do the conversion for 4 TBLSP of what you use?

    Reply

    • I never give conversions for brands because they are so different and change all the time. All the amounts I use are spoon for spoon instead of sugar. So if a recipe states 4 tablespoons, take a look at your brand, and see how much is the equivalent of 4 tablespoons of sugar. Sorry I can’t be more precise, as you can imagine, there are new brands out there almost daily. I also suggest with all my recipes, add sweetener to YOUR taste. We all have a completely different “sweet tooth” to one another depending on how long you have been sugar free. Some may need to add a LOT more, some may want to reduce it. We don’t want to rely on sweet flavours too often.

  53. I wanted to try using coconut oil or ghee in place of the butter but I don’t have a scale. Can you tell me how much the melted quantity is in tablespoons / cups please?? Really keen to try these! Thank you 😁

  54. Warning: Don’t make these if you don’t want to have little clouds from heaven in and around your mouth.

    Great recipe. So fluffy.

    For those of you saying you want them crispy, spray your iron with lots of pam and leave it for an extra minute. That should crisp them up on the outside.

    Reply

    • That doesn’t work. I just made these. No matter how long I left them in, they never got crispy. I even took 2 out and put them in the toaster and they still never got crispy.

  55. Like several others I tried “someone else’s recipe” and it just had the wrong wrong texture – crumbly and not holding together. The key apparently is in the amount of eggs. I substituted 25% of the coconut flour for almond flour and upped the cream for more liquid because almond flour absorbs more, I think 5tbsp. Also used cream of tartar to help the egg whites hold better. The results were truly outstanding on the first try.

  57. My wife & I are trying to stick to a low carb diet but needed a variation for breakfast instead of eggs scrambled, sunny-side up, poached, eggs, eggs, eggs etc etc. I thought, ‘what about low carb waffles’ ; the recipes that I came across were a stretch as the word waffle goes & then I was led to your site. I made them this morning(served with cream cheese & raspberry jam & bacon on the side). Not only were they good; they were fantastic. Light, fluffy, great taste & lightly browned. Released beautifully after they were done.
    The batter made 3 1/4 -7 inch size Belgian waffles.
    I followed the recipe to a T. Used whipping cream, Truvia & a little cream of tartar to help the egg whites.
    Two things are important (to me) when making the recipe: 1st-Combining ingredients- dry first-egg yolks with other liquids next minus the melted butter,then wet & dry combined together & then add the melted butter. Next gently fold the egg whites into the batter.
    2nd-Don’t overfill the batter in the waffle maker. Smooth out the batter, in the waffle maker, with a rubber spatula.
    Needless to say this is a KEEPER! Thank you

  59. Inlike practically everyone else, I thought these waffles were “meh” at best. The family ate them but said they tasted like French Toast. I will only make them again with modification to maken them taste less like eggs.

  60. Thank you for the great recipe…my granddaughter just loves having her peanut butter waffle sandwich for school lunches. However, I have made this recipe twice now and both times the mixture curdled. I don’t know if this is a problem with measurements as the recipe does not clarify if the tablespoon measurements are US tablespoons (15 ml) or Australian tablespoons (20 ml). Although the batter curdles, it still ends up working out OK, but I have to scrape the mixture onto the waffle maker rather than pour. Any advice would be very welcome.

  61. I have to be honest.. I was a monster making these. I kept listing off all of the reasons they would be terrible in my mind. (I’ve been burned before!) But I dutifully pressed on.

    I even said to myself “If it looks like an egg, and smells like an egg, it might be because it contains 5 fluppin eggs! This is gonna taste like eggs!”

    This. Was. Great! I loved them!!

    Thanks for the recipe, it’s a keeper.

  62. Hey! So excited to try this recipe out but I’m having trouble making sense of the nutritional info you have listed. I’ve matched every ingredient in my fitness pal but am getting 11g of carbs and 2 grams of fiber. This seems to be coming from using Swerve since 4TBS has 36 grams of carbs. Am I missing something or is your nutritional info off?

    Reply

  63. I am curious for those who want crispy waffles, could they add xantham gum? I ask because in the not carb friendly recipes for waffles the best have cornstarch in them to crisp the outside. I don’t have a waffle iron to test this theory otherwise I would. 🙂 Alternately it is recommended that you put the waffles on a baking sheet in the oven on 125 degrees until ready to serve to help preserve them.

    • I wouldn’t mess with this recipe. If u want a crisper waffle just leave in machine a few seconds longer than average. I found the texture is good. Not soggy & not too tough. No need for extra ingredients.

  65. Hi. I tried this waffle recipe and must say, it was amazing. I used coconut flour and alternated my milk for coconut milk instead. I didn’t include the vanilla extract but it still came out well.
    I used a pan which had grill lines so it gave me the waffles line effect! Lol. I was a it dry for me tho but I guess its cos I used lesser butter.
    I got 2 huge waffles from this and I could only eat one as I got really full. I’m glad I found this recipe and its been fun.
    Thanks for helping everyone that has tried this recipe with their journey in eating healthier.

  66. Hello! Thank you so much for your wonderful recipe. I tried it the first time and it worked great but subsequently I have got it all wrong, the mix is way too dry. Can you please confirm the weight of the coconut flour as opposed to the volume please as I think this may be the culprit. Also, the mix seemed to be lumpy, then I noticed the coconut flour in the sink making the same clumps in contact with water. Is this normal?

  67. These waffles are INCREDIBLE! I’ve been wanting to try them for a long time but I don’t often feel like subs anymore. So when my brother came to visit I used the opportunity to whip some of these up for him and my sister. They LOVED them and they aren’t even lchf! I tried a tiny bit to gauge and thought they were great. When eaten piping hot without toppings they have a very slight eggy taste but just let them cool down a few minutes and it’s gone. This is definitely a top recipe!

    Reply

  68. I made these for breakfast this morning. They are wonderful! I have a Belgian waffle maker and I got 3 waffles from this recipe. My batter was never thin and I got the scrambled egg look even though I let the melted butter cool a bit before adding it. However, after reading some of the other reviews, I kept going. My husband was skeptical, but loved them too. He even told people at work about them and has referred them to your site. I ate mine with 2 strips of bacon and 1/2 cup raspberries with a little whipped cream at 7:30 am this morning. I was not hungry or snacky all the way up to lunch time. This is a first for me. I plan to make a larger batch and try freezing them for quick and easy breakfasts. Thank you so much for the recipe. It’s the first I’ve tried on your site. I’m excited to try more!

  69. Made these tonight using heavy whipping cream in place of the milk, since it doesn’t have any sugar in it, did not use any sweetener, and only used 1 stick of butter because that’s what I had. They do taste a bit eggy, kind of like french toast, like another commenter mentioned, but my plan for this batch was to use it for breakfast sandwiches, so the eggy taste is no big deal. I’m looking forward to experimenting with the recipe. I made these in a belgium waffle maker so it made 2 big waffles, which I consider to be 4 servings. They were plenty fluffy, soft, but I like softer waffles. Plus, I’ll freeze them and reheat in the toaster, so they’ll crisp up a bit at that point. The first batch did stick and I lost half the waffle, so we taste tested with the ripped up portion :). Used more cooking spray on the second batch and that one came right out.

  70. WOW – fantastic waffles, they really are better than the high carb version. I used 1tbsp each flaxseed and almond meals in place of 1 tbs of coconut flour, and used coconut milk in place of the milk. We had them with some lightly cooked frozen blueberries and raspberries (with some Galliano), and cream cheese. These will be on the menu next weekend!!

    Thank you waffle Goddess!! 🙂

I’m so glad they lived up to the rave reviews. My only substitution is that instead of only coconut flour I used half flax meal and half coconut flour. Delicious.

  74. I made these today, trying to stay grain and sugar free after our most recent whole 30. Very, VERY yummy, good texture (not crisp but soft-fluffy, like french toast, as another commenter suggested), pretty easy to put together. They are quite filling! I considered doubling the recipe but am glad I didn’t, as I got 9-10 waffles out of the batch, enough to eat our fill & freeze 3. Recommended, all around!

  75. Good morning Libby!
    Life is good! I’ve been going to try your waffles for some time and today was the day! You said you modified the recipe from an old one you had. When I was a child, we always had waffles and pancakes from a recipe in a little cook book that was all recipes using apple cidar vinegar and baking soda. The chemical reaction of the two made them wonderfully light and fluffy. The waffle recipe had you separate the the eggs and beat them to stiff peaks as your recipe does. So instead of using the baking powder I substituted it with baking soda and used 1 tsp apple spider vinegar. I think I could have cut the cream back a bit or increased the coconut flour as the batter was a little thing but not much. They were wonderful! Thanks for your web site and all the work you do to make my LCHF lifestyle just a bit easier! Blessings!

  79. The highest compliments on this recipe. I’ve done low carb for some time and in trying carb substitutes have basically gotten to the point where if it doesn’t take good, I don’t bother with it. I absolute love waffles an have missed them. These are great! The closer you are to following the recipe and better the results. I also have removed the waffles and moved them on a sheet of parchment paper in the convection oven to crisp them a little further as well as keep them warm. Made them this morning for my celiacs child and was told these may be the best waffles of any type they’ve had. As a side not, I’m using Just Like Sugar (Table Top) which serves as a sweetener and big time fiber. Anyway, thanks for the time and effort in putting this together!

    Reply

    • Wow! I thought that I was the only one who knew about and used Just Like Sugar! It is soooo awesome! I have never seen anyone mention it in any low carb/ Keto article or blog. It would be worth your while to give it a try! (It is made from chicory root and measures and tastes…well, just like sugar!)

  84. Does anyone have any tips for making these crispier? I loved the taste, but I prefer my waffles to be on the crispy side. I tried putting them in the toaster oven, and that just ended up with them almost burning. My husband has suggested frying them, but I haven’t tried that just yet. Thanks!

  85. We had these for breakfast this morning and they were delicious! I mean, incredible – as good as any waffle I’ve ever eaten. To be honest I’d never normally dream of having waffles for breakfast as pre-LCHF they would never fitted in to my low fat diet (that just made me fat) so to have them on the allowed list is immense. Thank you for such wonderful recipes, you obviously put in loads of work and I thank you for providing such an amazing resource.

  86. I was just gifted a mini waffle iron. I didn’t have the patience to whip the whites so I added a teeny bit more baking powder and they came out amazing! Probably would only work with smaller waffles but they rise without an issue. Yummy.

  88. I asked for a waffle maker months ago for Christmas and then started a Keto diet! I was so sad thinking my waffle iron was going to go to waste. I have to admit, waffles with only 4T of “dry” ingredients just seems impossible, is it because you use so many eggs/the whites are whipped?

    I have a “sensitivity” (since that’s the word my naturopath likes to use) to egg whites & whey, so I’m going to try this with whipped aquafaba and coconut milk.

    FYI, The recipe I’m planning on using has <5% calories from carbohydrates, which seems INSANE to me! My weird tasting whole wheat/almond meal/protein powder waffles are 18% and I thought that was as low as you could go!

  99. I’ve never commented on an online recipe before but oh my goodness, this has changed everything. I can’t BELIEVE how amazing these are. I don’t have a waffle iron so I made pancakes and I’m not a huge fan of artificial sweeteners so I didn’t add any. I added about a tablespoon of cinnamon instead and a little nutmeg with the vanilla. The first pancake was brilliant–lovely and fluffy, buttery and rich and beautifully golden brown. I ended up making mostly crepe-like pancakes instead–just ladle down the batter and spread it a little with a spatula to get more pan-to-cake surface area. they cooked super quickly but didn’t seem to burn easily, and flipping was a dream–way easier than with the floury-sugar laden pancakes of my past! I ended up with 11 thin pancakes about 5 inches in diameter. I can’t wait to make more without the flavorings to use as sandwich “bread!” Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙂

  100. This recipe is delicious!

    I am 64, an experienced Baker/cook. I follow this recipe to a T, except that I folded a quarter of the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture before I combined the two in the egg whites bowl, and I used granulated Splenda.

    I have a standard George Foreman grill with waffle plates. I got four large waffles out of this recipe. That changed the nutritional calculations, so I used the free MyFitnessPal app, which has a recipe calculator in it, to figure out the nutrition. Not all waffle irons are alike. My old waffle iron was smaller, and would’ve made 5 from this recipe.

    Also, I found these waffles give off a lot of steam. I baked them 4 minutes on high setting. I put them on a cake rack for a minute or two, to lose more of the steam and crisp up. Otherwise they were limp. Ymmv.

    • Yes it would work. This is exactly what I do when I have a pizza party for teenage sleepovers (using the pizza waffles). I make the waffles the night before or in the morning. Keep them in an airtight container then reheat them the next day in the oven. If you don’t have an oven, you could microwave them (they may be a bit floppy however) or warm them in a sandwich/panini press. Enjoy.

  115. Take out 1/3 of the coconut flour and add twice that amount of almond flour and you get a little denser waffle that comes out of the waffle maker easier. Also, if you add the vanilla last, and double the amount but stir less, just so you still see streaks, you get crunchy and sweet chunks in the waffle that taste a little like heath bars.

    Reply

  116. I always read comments on food blogs, but I never leave any. These waffles are so good that I can’t remain silent this time.

    I have tried numerous Keto waffle recipes (all those expensive wasted ingredients) and have been disappointed every single time… until now. I went into making these with a whole lot of skepticism (especially because of the coconut flour) and expecting to be let down like usual. Boy was I surprised after that first waffle came out of the waffle iron! These are the closest thing to a carb and sugar loaded waffle that I’ve come across since going Keto. I ate mine sprinkled only with cinnamon. I’m betting they are even better with a topping.

    I did use Erythritol instead of stevia and only 1tbsp which was plenty sweet enough for me. That was the only alteration I made.

    Thank you so much for this amazing recipe! Will definitely be making these again and again.

    Reply

    • They are supposed to be browned and a little firm on the outside and fluffy on the inside. They are certainly not crispy as waffles are usually crispy from the sugar. They shouldn’t tear apart. I’m thinking you need more coconut flour perhaps depending on the size of eggs you used.

  123. Which stevia are you using? Because that much pure stevia would be way too sweet, to the point of being inedible.

    Is yours a blend with another bulking sweetener?

    I can easily figure out how much pure stevia is needed once I know what brand you are using, thanks.

  125. Made these this morning in a regular waffle maker! It made two regular size waffles. I imagine the ones you are making here are quite small since you say this recipe serves 5 (and we made two). I just want to make sure I understand – since you say it serves 5 and the macro-nutrient information is per 1 serving – I would multiple by that by 5 to get the TOTAL nutrition info, yes? Just wanting to make sure.

    I only ate 1/2 of my waffle anyways 🙂 It was VERY good!

    Reply

    • I just went and measured my waffle maker, the waffles are 6 inch/ 15 cm in diameter. The entire recipe makes 5 waffles, the nutrition is per waffle. Yes to get the total nutrition values for the entire recipe, you need to multiply it by 5. You must have a enormous waffle maker if it only makes 2 and you could only finish half. Wow.

  126. O.m.g. I just made these for breakfast and they were absolutely amazing!! I didn’t have enough butter (only about 7 tbs) and no milk in the fridge so I used half and half and liquid sugar free French vanilla creamer to add to the required liquids (and didn’t use any other sweeteners to sweeten them either, creamer was enough) and the waffles turned out fantastic! My bf who doesn’t really eat low carb (unless I’m cooking and he has no choice hehe) had the first waffle and said they tasted kinda eggy, but then quickly said “like french toast” which made me really excited, because I looove and miss french toast! I topped mine with sugar free apricot preserves and french vanilla flavored whipped topping. I told my bf you are an amazing person for coming up with this recipe as these are going to be my weekend breakfast from now on!! Oh, I used my Belgian waffle maker and only got 3 waffles out of it, but I can’t wait to use the recipe for other things like breakfast sandwiches, etc. Yummm. Anyways, thank you, Keto Goddess!!

Every darn time I see a new low carb/keto waffle recipe on Pinterest, I get all excited, dust off the waffle iron, throw some bacon in the oven, and about a half hour later the air is blue with expletives as I curse the liar who swore their recipe was just like the “real” waffles of my past. Up until now they have all been crap. Today was different. Big time different. Life altering different. Angels singing in my mouth different. Even my husband, who is unimpressed with all things Keto, couldn’t stop saying Wow… WOW…. These are legal???

    • You could try coconut oil but you may need to add some more vanilla as the butter is there for flavour and texture. You could even add cinnamon too. The butter gives it a rich creamy taste so you may have to play around with the recipe a little to get it to your liking. I’d love you to report back if it works.

  135. This may be too much of a change but is there a way to make these paleo AIP friendly? So it would need to be dairy free and egg free, so coconut milk would work for milk but would need a substitute for eggs and butter?

    • Daisy, if I may, here are some options to check out, not a definitive answer. I was once p-aip myself, and sometimes go back to if autoinflammatory symptoms seem to be creeping back.
      For the eggs, try making gelatin eggs, I use the red can of Great Lakes Unflavored as it is easy to find where I live, just gelatin and water (a quick internet search will provide the ratios).
      For the butter, Ghee if not allergic/intolerant, or some sort of solid fat (i.e. coconut oil, beef fat, pork fat, duck fat, etc.).
      HOWEVER, you will need to determine carb counts for each of these options and the amounts used.
      Hope this is helpful to you, and good luck!:)

    • I used almond flour today and it worked for me. I also used heavy whipping cream instead of milk. It was very tasty!

    • You got me thinking and here is the true definition of a coconut “The term coconut can refer to the entire coconut palm, the seed, or the fruit. Botanically the coconut fruit is a drupe, not a true nut. A drupe is a fruit in which an outer fleshy part surrounds a pit of hardened endocarp with a seed inside.”

  143. Libby, is the waffle pictured the size of the waffle indicated as one serving? My waffle maker is a lot smaller than that and makes 2 square waffles – I’m trying to figure out how many waffles the recipe might make with my smaller machine!

    I used heavy whipping cream as I didn’t have milk and they turned out so light and yummy!

      • I did make them soon after you posted! I was hungry and saw those and thought I’d give them a try! I’ve shared the recipe with several family members and can’t wait to see what they think! Makes LCHF fun ! Thanks!

  147. Hi Libby, I can’t have milk products. Do you think this recipe would work if I replaced the 3 tbsp full fat milk with 3 tbsp coconut cream? Thanks.
