Keto Waffles With Coconut Flour Recipe with only 4 Ingredients – An easy low carb waffle idea with heavy cream, coconut flour and a topping of strawberries and whipped cream.
Keto Waffles With Coconut Flour
I’m slowly re-stocking my kitchen after moving across the world and starting from scratch. My latest acquisition is a waffle maker.
So, I set to work creating the simplest as possible, easy keto waffle recipe – with as few ingredients as possible.
There are only 4 ingredients in these waffles that are low in net carbs, and you probably already have them in your kitchen.
All you need is a waffle maker (find one here) and you can be enjoying Keto Waffles with Coconut Flour in no time!
Even when I’m going through phases of not following keto, I still make these waffles because they are just so much lighter and taste so much better than regular waffles or normal waffles that are full of wheat flour and other carby ingredients.
Keto Coconut Flour Waffles Ingredients
As mentioned – these easy low carb waffles are a great recipe that have only 4 simple ingredients – eggs, cream, coconut flour and salt.
I’ve listed heavy cream, because that’s what I used in this instance. But, feel free to use whatever cream you have in your kitchen to create waffles with the perfect fluffy texture.
Coconut flour is high in dietary fiber and is incredibly absorbent, a little goes a loooong way. You’ll find that the quarter of a cup listed in the recipe is the perfect amount to create a waffle batter.
Due to coconut flour’s absorbent nature, whisk up your waffle batter and leave it to thicken for 5-10 minutes, adding more cream if your mixture becomes too thick.
If you’d like to sweeten the waffle batter, then just add in a few tablespoons of stevia or your sweetener of choice.
For protein rich pancakes, just whisk in a half a scoop of protein powder. You may need to add in a couple more spoons of cream or milk to loosen up the batter if it’s been thickened by protein powder.
How To Make Coconut Flour Waffles
To actually make the easy coconut flour waffles, start by whisking 4 eggs together in a bowl, until smooth.
You could separate the eggs and whisk the egg yolks and egg whites separately before folding them together, for extra light and fluffy Belgian waffles.
Then whisk in the cream. I just used pouring cream but use whatever cream you have to hand.
I’ve also tested this recipe with unsweetened almond milk, instead of the heavy cream, and it works perfectly. So, you could even use almond milk, or even coconut milk, instead if you want the waffles to be dairy free.
Add the salt and coconut flour and whisk until you have created a coconut flour waffle batter. You could also add in half a teaspoon to a teaspoon of vanilla extract for a rich vanilla flavored traditional waffle experience.
Another option is to add a little xanthan gum or a pinch of gluten-free baking powder for extra fluffy gluten-free waffles.
Then, heat you waffle maker (or Belgian waffle maker), be sure to grease it well with either a spray oil, coconut oil or a pat of butter. When the waffle iron is ready, pour in the waffle batter to fill (but not overfill) the waffle maker.
Cook the waffles according to the directions that come with your waffle maker.
Once the waffles are golden brown and done to your liking, move them carefully to a plate. I use an egg lifter to gently remove the waffles from the very hot waffle maker.
Top your fluffy waffles with your low carb, keto toppings of choice and enjoy. While I usually go for sweet toppings, sometimes I’ll top my waffles with fried eggs (as pictured above) for a hearty, protein rich breakfast of savory waffles.
You can meal prep and make the waffles ahead of time, or make a double batch and store extras in the fridge and simply reheat in the waffle iron, toaster oven or microwave for a speedy and easy breakfast of healthy waffles when you have a busy morning.
Keto Waffle Toppings Ideas
My Waffle Topping preference for these low-carb waffles is usually strawberries and cream. Here are more topping ideas for you:
- Lemon or Lime and Stevia
- Cinnamon and Stevia
- Lemon Curd
- Cream Cheese
- Low Carb Ice Cream
- Chocolate Chips
- Almond Butter
- Whipped Cream
- Sugar-free syrup, keto maple syrup or maple extract
- Raspberries or any other fresh berries
- Yoghurt
- Butter
- Coconut
- Nuts or Nut Butter

This low carb waffle recipe is a great way to satisfy your waffle craving or sweet tooth, and is way better than the real thing, helping you on your path to weight loss and to stick to your keto meal plan.
