A keto waffle recipe like you have never seen before! Crispy, fluffy, not egg tasting and made in under 15 minutes. The best keto waffles for the internet. All you need is the basics to make these easy waffles. Dive in because after the first taste you won’t believe these are low carb or gluten free!
Recipe Highlights
- Buttery waffles that come out crispy from the waffle iron.
- Texture is not an issue with these waffles with the perfect balance of almond flour and coconut flour.
- You can make batches, freeze them then pop them in the toaster oven later.
Ingredients Needed
- Blanched Almond Flour
- Coconut Flour
- Baking Soda
- Salted Butter
- Eggs
Helpful Recipe Tips
- Out of coconut flour? If you want to skip the coconut flour you can. But, if you simply don’t like coconut flour I have an all almond flour waffle as well. Note, that is a separate recipe and it does taste differently.
- Waffle iron temperature, the hotter the waffle iron the crispier your keto waffles will be. The lower the temp the softer the waffle will be.
- Where is the sweetener? In this recipe I don’t add in any sweetener. For sweeteners I use a sugar free maple syrup to top it off or a something like this blueberry compote from a pancake recipe.
How To Store
You can make these them freeze them for later. The great thing about keto waffles is you can pop them in the toaster oven straight from the freezer. For those having issues getting the waffles crispy there would be no worries when making them ahead of time.
They should keep in the freezer for months when stored in an air tight container or vacuum sealed.
Toppings & Variations
- Lakanto syrup
- Berries (blackberries, strawberries, raspberries)
- Keto caramel sauce
- Nuts (walnuts, pecans, pistachios)

Thanks for sharing this recipe Darius. It’s so easy to make and they really are the best Leto waffles I’ve tried.
Can coconut flour be substituted with anything else?
I like that this recipe only uses 1 egg. Some of the other keto waffle recipes are just too heavy on the eggs and taste like you’re eating an omelet. Thanks for this recipe, I’m going to make it right now!
You could skip it, it would change the texture slighlty
The instructions indicate 1 egg; the video shows 2 being added. Which is correct?
In the video I doubled the recipe. Sorry for the confusion.
I used a Belgium waffle iron & I only get half a waffle is this recipe for half?
No worries…thanks for the update – breakfast for dinner here I come!!
That’s just a suggested serving but everyone eats the full waffle including myself.
Delicious!
Thanks so much Darius, for sharing! This waffle recipe is absolutely AMAZING 🤩 I agree with other reviewers that this isn’t eggy at all and really satisfies that waffle craving. I have made this countless times and in different variations. It makes a great base for both sweet and savory waffles (my most recent experiment has been a cheddar thyme version and it is delish!) Doubling the batch fits perfectly into my waffle maker. Please share more of these recipe delights!
So glad you enjoy the recipe! It has always been one of my favorites.
Great!
I just made these waffle in my mini waffle, they turn out great
Do you have the full nutrition info, not just the calories?
Yes the info is in the body of the page. But, I added it into the recipe card for you as well now.
I just restarted Keto and I am so happy I found this recipe! The batter is super easy and quick to whip together, they cook very well and really are fluffy. The best part is that the taste is really good! It takes some getting used to the almond flour texture when doing keto, but these were fluffy, not eggy at all and definitely satisfied my waffle craving.
Darius, is it possible to freeze these cooked waffles? I multiplied the amount of batter and now have extra as one was very filling!
Thank you so much for this recipe! You’ve gained another follower!
This is my go to Waffle recipe! I tried something new with it this morning. Replaced half the butter with pumpkin purée. Added cinnamon and vanilla. It was yummy. Made it a little more dense and cake like. But a nice change.
This is my favorite waffle recipe! Curious if you could help me, want to use this recipe as a base for pumpkin waffles, what and how much can I add to make this a pumpkin version?
This is a great question because I actually just adapted it myself for a personal recipe. I added 1 tsp pumpkin spice, 1 TB of sweetener and replaced the butter with 2TB of canned pumpkin. I topped it off with butter as well but that is optional. If you give it a try let me know what you think. I loved it but it’s not hard to please me with pumpkin lol.
This is definitely going to be my go-to keto waffle recipe. I’ve been doing keto since July 2020 and attempted to make waffles one time. They were so dense and dry that I threw it in the trash after one bite. I made these this morning and they are absolutely delicious. I recently found out about pecan flour so instead of almond flour I used pecan flour. I did not have any coconut flour so I used coconut extract instead. They are so so good.
Thank you so much for this! They were delicious and I was able to have a much needed break from chaffles. I appreciate your dedication and hard work in helping others along our journey. 🙂
I tried to make enough for four servings. The batter ended up being more like a thick paste. Should the ratio of ingredients be adjusted as the servings increase?
Did it become a thick paste as it sat or when you mixed it originally? Due to the coconut flour it would be best to make one at a time because as it sits the flours will keep absorbing the liquid causing the waffle batter to get thicker and thicker.
I have made this several times. I serve it with Greek yoghurt and berries. Very delicious and easy.
This is SO GOOD. I think I might just stand around all day and make batches of these for freezing. But I have to finish my SECOND WAFFLE below I can do that.
My first time making keto waffles (I made chaffles too). These were sooo easy and so delicious I am so glad I spent $9.95 on a mini waffle maker today. Thank you for this easy, delicious e discovery!!
I have made this recipe many times and have been adding things to it to make it a bit more to how I like them. I also add, xanthan gum, pure monkfruit sweetner, vanilla and some thick creamy coconut milk to the batter. I really like it!
On top I whip cream with monkfruit and vanilla, whip cream cheese into that, put that on top of the pancake and then top that with fruit.
Thanks for the recipe. It was super easy and delicious. I added butter, avocado, honey, and hemp seeds on top. I cooked them on a multi mini for 3 minutes. I may cook them for 1 more minute to get it crispy. These hit the spot.
First time ever making keto waffles. They were so good!
This waffle is fantastic! Added a little cinnamon, but followed the directions exactly. Definitely a keeper!!!
***This is a great recipe****. I tried it this morning and .. success!!! I am NOT a cook, and the directions were easy to follow.
I’m going to make a bunch of these waffles and throw them in by the freezer for a quick breakfast on the go. They should hold up in the toaster?
I look forward to more of your recipes! Thank you!!
So happy you enjoyed them? And are we talking about a toaster oven or toaster? In a toaster where they are standing up they may be fragile when coming out since almond flour tends to do that. But, coming from frozen that issue may not be a problem.
YES!!! Best Keto waffle I have tasted yet 👏👏👏
Could you substitute protein for the coconut flour ?
I have never tried that but I can see it possibly working. Coconut flour is very absorbent and protein can be as well. Please share your results if you give it a try.
I’m surprised the calorie count is so high, but I don’t count them much anyway, eating a keto diet. Does the sugar come from the milk? I plan to add 1/2 tsp eath of sweetener and vanilla because I do not plan to eat them with syrup.
Also, If I decide to make 4 in a 4-waffle iron if I used 2 eggs instead of 4, how much would the texture change?
Thank you
The sugar comes from several factors all the way down to the nut flours used. Even healthy foods produce natural sugars like fruit. However, for the question of the eggs, I am glad you asked because these calculators are made by a computer and not a person. I actually recommend using 2 or 3 eggs instead of 4 because the eggs can stretch better.
I personally have never made a batch that size but when I have doubled the recipe I only used 1 egg. So, I imagine, 2 should be just fine but 4 eggs would be way too many.
