5-Minute Vanilla Spice Cassava Flour Waffles (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free)
These super easy vanilla spice cassava flour waffles only take a few minutes to make, and are an indulgent-feeling healthy treat if you're on a gluten-free or dairy-free diet (including AIP, etc).
Servings: 1 large or 2 small waffles
Ingredients
- 80 grams of cassava flour approximately 1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon - if you're using protein powder, only use 1/2 cup of flour or about 65 grams
- Optional 1 scoop of Equilife Vanilla DNS or other vanilla protein powder
- 1/2 tablespoon of baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
- 1/4 cup of olive oil or melted coconut oil or melted ghee or grassfed butter if your diet allows, for more flavor
- 1/4 cup non-dairy milk of choice
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon of lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon of almond butter leave out if diet doesn't allow
- If you don't use a flavored protein powder add:
- 1 tablespoon of maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Instructions
- Heat up your waffle iron.
- Stir together the dry ingredients...the cassava flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- Add the wet ingredients...the non-dairy milk, oil, egg, lemon juice, almond butter, and the maple syrup and vanilla if using. Stir together until JUST combined, but don't over-mix or it will be tough.
- Pour the batter into your waffle iron, spreading to make sure it evenly covers the griddle.
- Cook until done and fluffy (on my waffle iron that's about 3 minutes total, but each is different).
- Remove from the waffle iron and top with whatever you feel like...fresh berries, sliced banana, drizzle with nut butter and a little maple syrup, or anything else!
Notes
I have tried this with oat flour as well, and it's delicious and less dense, but also falls apart really easily. But it works well!
