Ingredients

Waffle Batter

  • 1 cup whole milk (or your favorite dairy-free milk)
  • 2 eggs
  • Splash of vanilla paste
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/4 cup ghee (or coconut oil or butter)
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh spinach
  • 2 1/4 cups almond flour (2 cups + 1/4 cup)
  • 1/4 cup flax meal
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

For Serving

  • Butter
  • Syrup

Instructions

  1. Prepare the batter: Place the milk, eggs, vanilla paste, coconut sugar, ghee, fresh spinach, almond flour, flax meal, and baking powder in a blender or food processor.
  2. Blend ingredients: Blend all the ingredients together until the batter is smooth and evenly combined, ensuring the spinach is fully incorporated.
  3. Preheat waffle iron: Grease your waffle iron with ghee, coconut oil, or butter to prevent sticking, then preheat it until hot and ready.
  4. Cook waffles: Scoop ½ cup of batter onto the center of the waffle iron, then close the lid. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the waffle iron’s indicator light signals the waffles are cooked through and crisp.
  5. Serve: Carefully remove the waffles, place them on a plate, and top with butter and syrup to taste. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

  • If you prefer dairy-free, substitute whole milk with almond or oat milk and use coconut oil instead of ghee.
  • To make this recipe vegan, replace eggs with flax eggs (1 tablespoon flax meal + 3 tablespoons water per egg) and use dairy-free milk.
  • Fresh spinach can be substituted with baby kale or Swiss chard if desired.
  • You can prep the batter in advance and refrigerate for up to 24 hours; stir well before cooking.
  • Adjust cooking time slightly depending on your waffle iron model to avoid under or overcooking.
