Grain-Free Waffles


Grain-Free Waffles

The Players

    4 large eggs, separated (from pastured hens)

    1 1/4 ripe medium banana, mashed or pureed (or one large banana)

    2 heaping tablespoon applesauce

    2 tablespoon raw honey (where to find real honey)

    2 teaspoon vanilla

    1/2 cup coconut flour (where to find coconut flour)

    1/2 teaspoon sea salt (where to find REAL salt)

    1/2 teaspoon baking soda

The How-To

Separate the eggs. Whip up the whites with an electric hand mixer until soft peaks form.

In a separate bowl, combine the remaining wet ingredients together: add the honey, vanilla and mashed banana to the egg yolks and mix by hand.

In yet another bowl, add baking soda and salt to the coconut flour and mix.

Add the dry mixture to the wet and stir together by hand. If the dry mixture is very thick add water (up to 1/2 cup).

Fold in the whites being careful not to over mix. The batter should be loose. Using a large serving spoon, add the batter to the preheated and oiled waffle iron. (I use this cast iron waffle iron that works on my electric stove top. No dangerous teflon or aluminum!) Remove when indicated by the waffle iron.
