Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups (480 ml) ground flaxseed
  • 2 teaspoons (10 ml / 0.3 fl oz) ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml / 0.2 fl oz) sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml / 0.5 fl oz) baking powder
  • 1/3 cup (80 ml) avocado oil
  • 5 large eggs, at room temperature
  • ½ cup (120 ml / 4.1 fl oz) water
  • Whipped cream, for serving
  • For guaranteed clean release, lightly spray your waffle iron with avocado or coconut oil before pouring the batter for each chaffle, even if it's non-stick.
  • Avoid overmixing the batter when combining wet and dry . Stir just until no dry streaks remain to keep the final texture light and prevent it from becoming too dense.
  • These chaffles freeze beautifully. Let them cool completely, then store in a freezer-safe bag with parchment paper between each one. Reheat directly from frozen in a toaster or air fryer for a quick breakfast.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. Preheat your non-stick waffle iron to a medium or medium-high setting. 2.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the ground flaxseed, ground cinnamon, sea salt, and baking powder. 3.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, avocado oil, and water until smooth.
  5. Pour the wet mixture into the dry and stir until just combined. 4.
  6. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow it to thicken. 5.
  7. Pour about ¼ of the batter onto the hot waffle iron, close the lid, and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. 6. Carefully remove the chaffle with a silicone spatula and place it on a plate.
  8. Repeat the process with the remaining batter. 7.
  9. Serve the warm chaffles immediately, topped with a generous dollop of whipped cream.
  10. Don't skip the 5-minute resting period for the batter. This step is crucial for the flaxseed to absorb moisture, resulting in a thicker batter and a better-structured chaffle.
