Calories 226kcal
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup Tigernut flour
- 1/2 cup Cassava flour
- 1/4 cup Arrowroot flour
- 1 tsp Baking soda
- 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1 cup Coconut milk full or low-fat works (you may sub another milk if needed, see recipe notes*)
- 1/4 cup Coconut Oil liquid or avocado oil
- 3 tsp Apple cider vinegar
- optional: protein powder
Instructions
- First, heat your waffle iron. Mix all dry ingredients together with a whisk in a large bowl.
- In a smaller bowl, combine all liquid ingredients and stir well to combine.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry and whisk together until you have a batter. It will be on the thicker side - if you're adding any protein powder, just pour in a little water (a tsp at a time) to help with any clumping).
- My waffle iron calls for 1/3 cup for each waffle, so I use a measuring cup to scoop the batter and pour in the centers - read your manual to confirm the amount and do the same.
- Close waffle iron and use according to your manual. I use mine on medium heat and wait for the light to go off before opening or sometimes I peek before then! Find your groove with your machine.
- As you're making the waffles, place them each on a grate so they don't get soggy and you can store in the oven on a keep warm setting until you're ready to serve.
- Serve directly or store these in the freezer for later use - simply pop them in the toaster before serving.

BAKING NOTES
Recipe adapted from Tasty Yummies My waffle iron here.
- If using different milk, be sure to grease your waffle iron in case the batter is very thin and may stick.
- The best Cassava flours to use are Anthony's or Otto's brands linked above. I've tried others that made the batter too dry.
- Make sure your coconut milk is creamy, if it's clumpy or separated, just throw it into a blender and mix for 30 seconds so it's smooth. If it's very cold/solid, heat it up first a bit or it might make for a stiff batter.
- Make sure the coconut oil is melted.
- Check your expiration dates on all your baking ingredients!
- When combining the wet and dry ingredients, you should notice the baking soda and vinegar making fizzy bubbles (this is a good sign!)
- If all else fails, and the batter isn't working out, if you can tolerate eggs - throw 1 egg in it. Adding too much water to loosen the batter will make it stick to the waffle iron.
