Almond Flour Waffles Recipe
I love making these Almond Flour Waffles on the weekend and freezing the leftovers for quick breakfasts throughout the week! While many gluten-free, lower-carb recipes tend to be dry, this waffle recipe is anything but that. Made with healthier ingredients, like Greek yogurt and nut butter, they make for the best waffle texture that holds up and tastes so delicious.
Make this grain-free waffles recipe in no time at all, then top them off with syrup and fruit for a yummy breakfast treat! Or freeze them for later. Either way, these low-carb waffles are SO delicious!

Do we absolutely need to add tapioca?
Christine McMichael replied:
I would highly recommend it to help with the moisture retention and texture! You could also use another type of starch, like potato starch or cornstarch.
