  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder **Ensure freshness for best rise.
  • ¼ teaspoon Kosher salt Balance out flavors.
Wet Ingredients
  • 1 large egg (room temperature) Helps with batter emulsification.

  • ⅓ cup unsweetened almond milk Can substitute with any milk of choice.

Preparation
  1. Preheat the waffle iron: Plug in your waffle iron and allow it to preheat to medium-high.
  2. Whisk wet ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, almond milk, and vanilla extract.
  3. Make waffle batter: Pour the wet ingredients into your dry mixture of almond flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Mix together until smooth.
Cooking
  1. Brush the hot waffle iron with a light coating of coconut oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Pour ⅓ cup of batter into the center of the waffle iron, spreading it slightly with a spatula.
  3. Close the lid and cook for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  4. Carefully remove the waffle using a fork and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the iron between batches.
Serving
  1. Serve warm with toppings like maple syrup, whipped cream, or fresh berries.
