You could serve this amazing almond flour waffle with low-carb maple syrup. If you prefer, you can also eat yours with berries - most often some raspberries or strawberries.
You may also go for something like a fruit puree. Making a fruit puree is really easy and straightforward. To do this, follow the steps below:

How to make Almond Flour Waffle Recipe for one
- Preheat your waffle iron on high for at least 10-14 minutes. Note: Use a ceramic coated waffle iron because it does have to be greased before use. Doing this makes your ceramic iron non-sticky without the use of Teflon (A chemical coating used to create a non-stick surface). There have been recent concerns with using this chemical material, which is known for its use in cookware.
- Place one cup of blanched almond flour into a bowl. Ensure that there are no lumps. If the flour is lumpy, use a fork to break up any lumps.
- Add one level tablespoon of psyllium husk powder.
- 10 to 40 drops of liquid stevia (the vanilla flavor is good)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon aluminum-free baking powder
- 1/4 cup dairy-free milk (you can use unsweetened cashew milk if you prefer)
- One teaspoon of oil (melted butter or ghee butter is also acceptable)
- One large egg.
- Mix everything well to combine.
- When the mixture is ready, pour the content into your preheated waffle iron.
- Cook as per your waffle iron's instructions. You can set your waffle iron to high. Note: If you want a crunchier waffle, you need to cook it longer.
- When you recipe is ready, serve with your topping(s) of choice.
