I'll email this post to you as well as my new recipes weekly!
- Preheat your waffle iron as indicated by the manufacturer. Spraying with nonstick may also be suggested (I spray mine).
- Use a whisk to mix together the almond flour and the baking powder.
- Stir in the sugar alternative, vanilla, egg, and the melted butter.
- When the waffle iron is ready, use a scoop to transfer the batter on to bottom half. Cook according to the directions for the iron. I have a waffle iron that can be flipped halfway through cooking. It should take about two to three minutes to cook the waffles on each side.
- I like to keep the waffles that are done warm by placing them on an oven safe dish or platter in a warm (on low) oven while I finish cooking the remaining waffles. Wrapping the waffles in foil will also keep them warm.
- Serve the waffles with low carbohydrate syrup, fruit, or whatever pleases you!
What you need to make Baking Mix Waffles
- Sugar Alternative- 1 ½ tablespoons. Granular works best
- Low Carb Baking Mix Such as Carbquik- 1 ¼ cups.
- Egg-1.
- Heavy Cream- ¼ cup.
- Water- ¼ cup.
- Vanilla Extract- 1 teaspoon.
- Oil- 2 tablespoons. Vegetable or neutral oil works best.
How to make keto waffles using baking mix.
- Give your waffle iron a quick spray with nonstick if desired before preheating it.
- In a large mixing bowl, use a fork or a whisk or a fork to blend together the sugar alternative with the baking mix. Set this bowl aside.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs until thick (about 2 ½ to 3 minutes) then whisk in the heavy cream, water and vanilla extract.
- Add the dry ingredients from the first bowl to the large mixing bowl and then the oil. Mix until just combined.
- When the waffle iron is ready, use a scoop to transfer the batter on to bottom half. Cook according to the directions for the iron. I have a waffle iron that can be flipped halfway through cooking. It should take about two to three minutes to cook the waffles on each side.
Tips for making the best waffles.
Use a waffle iron that has plates that can be removed.
This will help make your clean up effort easier.
Here are some more helpful tips for you.
- It is essential that you use fresh ingredient to make this recipe. This is especially true with the dry ingredients that you are using.
- For golden brown waffles, use a center setting on the waffle iron. However, for a crisper, darker waffle , increase the browning control to a higher setting.
- For evenly filled waffles, pour the batter onto the center of the lower grid and close the cover.
- For best results, use ½ cup batter per waffle for evenly filled waffles.
- Store baked waffles may be kept warm oven while you finish making the rest of the batter.
- Make these waffles into a sandwich or a cake. Simply double the batter and then add something tasty to the middle layer!
How to store waffles.
Leftover waffles should be stored in an airtight container.
You can also store leftover waffles in a freezer to enjoy later. Before storing your leftover waffles, be sure to allow them to cool completely

Used almond flour 1c & 1/4 c coconut flour, baking soda, rest of ingredients. Had to use extra almond milk & water for more liquid consistency. Batter was thicker. Any suggestions? Waffles tasted good though! Served with whipped cream & raspberries.
Thanks!

Sounds like you nailed it as the end product turned out good. Thanks for sharing this! And yes, batter is thicker as the flour alternatives are not exactly like regular all purpose flour. thanks again!!
Brian Carrico
I made these last week and they turned out great. I used the Carbquik method. One comment I will make is that they came out a little flatter than normal waffles, but still delicious. I believe I will add some baking soda the next time just to get them to rise a little bit more. Other than that, really good! Thanks for the recipe.
SFD
So glad to hear this and thank you for the tip that you have shared 🙂

The consistency of the batter was more like cookie dough. The center of the waffle was burnt and the waffle left an odd aftertaste
Sugar Free Diva
The consistency is thicker than regular waffles because we are using almond flour and not adding dairy. You can try adding a bit more melted butter or a bit of creamer to thin it out next time. thanks
Jaime
Really good. I have tried both versions. Both turned out fantastic
Sugar Free Diva
Glad they both worked out well for you!
Gina
Tried this today. What a failure. I used a little less almond flour, a little more butter and it still didn't create a batter. the smell was wonderful, but the consistency and taste were not great. There was no binder to keep the "waffle" form. And not enough liquid. Next time I think I will try adding an egg to see if that helps.
Sugar Free Diva
Hello. The egg was listed in both recipe however, it was missing in the recipe card. Thanks for pointing this out. Have a great day!
