Ingredients
  

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 large ripe banana, about 1/2 cup or 120g (4.2 oz) mashed
  • ¾ cup (180 ml / 6.1 fl oz) full-fat coconut milk
  • ¾ cup (84 g / 2.96 oz) super-fine almond flour
  • 1 tbsp (9 g / 0.32 oz) ground psyllium husk powder
  • 1 tsp (4 g / 0.14 oz) baking powder
  • 1 tsp (2.6 g / 0.09 oz) ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp (2.5 ml / 0.1 fl oz) pure vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp (1.5 g / 0.05 oz) sea salt
  • Butter or coconut oil, for greasing the waffle iron
  • for Perfect Waffles
  • Use a banana with plenty of brown spots. The riper the banana, the sweeter your waffles will be and the easier it will be to mash into a smooth consistency.
  • For the crispiest waffles, avoid lifting the lid of the waffle maker too early. Wait until the steam stops coming out of the sides for a good indication that they're ready.
  • These waffles freeze beautifully. Let them cool completely, then store them in a freezer-safe bag with parchment paper between each one. Reheat directly from frozen in a toaster or oven.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. In a large bowl, mash the ripe banana with a fork until it's smooth and almost liquid, with very few lumps remaining.
  3. Add the eggs, coconut milk, almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt to the bowl.
  4. Whisk everything together until the batter is smooth and well-combined.
  5. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes. This allows the psyllium husk and almond flour to absorb the liquid and thicken the batter to the perfect consistency.
  6. While the batter rests, preheat your waffle maker.
  7. Once hot, grease it lightly with butter or coconut oil.
  8. Pour the recommended amount of batter into the waffle maker, close the lid, and cook for 4-6 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown, crisp, and cooked through.
  9. Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter.
  10. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings like hazelnut spread, fresh berries, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
  11. Enjoy!
  12. Don't skip the resting step! Allowing the batter to sit for 5 minutes is crucial for achieving a light and fluffy texture, as it gives the psyllium and almond flour time to thicken the batter.
