Recipe makes about 4 larger Belgian style waffles or 6-8 smaller waffles.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until light and frothy. Add the almond milk and butter and mix until combined.
Add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt and psyllium powder and mix until smooth.
Preheat the waffle maker while mixture thickens on the bench for a couple of minutes.
Spoon in about 1/4 cup of the waffle batter to make smaller waffles or about ½ cup for larger Belgian waffles. If mixture is too thick to smooth out, use a slightly wet spatula to spread the mixture out over the waffle iron. Note these measurements are approximates only.
If you have an indicator on your waffle maker, close the lid and cook until waffle light turns green, or for about 3-5 minutes until the waffle browns.
Serve with your favorite toppings and sides such as heavy or whipped cream, low carb maple syrup, Greek yogurt, or fresh berries of choice.
Notes
You can separate the eggs and whip the whites until stiff peaks form before folding into the waffle batter once all ingredients have been added for a lighter waffle.If you only have psyllium husks, process in a food processor until smooth. Do not use whole husks as they are a little grainy. Psyllium powder helps bind the waffles.For more developed flavors, add a dash of ACV (apple cider vinegar) and switch 1/4 cup of almond/nut milk for 1/4 cup heavy/pouring cream.If your waffle iron doesn't cook to high temperatures you can toast your waffles in the toaster or pan fry them until they brown.Non stick surfaces can be damaged by oiling or greasing. If your waffle maker sticks then please grease/oil it to prevent. If it doesn't stick, do not oil or grease. You can use butter, olive oil or coconut oil.Different brand flours can absorb varying amounts of moisture. If the mixture is too thick, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time but don't use too much or the batter won't cook properly. Remember though that this is quite a thick batter which needs a spatula to spread it out.Sweeten waffles to suit your own taste. My preference is for a not so sweet waffle which is reflected in the recipe. Use preferred sweetener such as monk fruit blend, erythritol or coconut sugar and taste as you add in increments.
