Keto Waffles are something I never thought I would eat, but this recipe has made breakfast amazing again. You are going to fall in love with these delicious waffles and make batches for your family every week!
The Very Best Keto Waffles
With a big family, I have always avoided making homemade waffles because it took forever. However, my kids love waffles and after watching the Keto documentary, The Magic Pill, I decided to be more intentional to feed my kids with less processed foods.
Don’t get me wrong, we have made many great health changes over the past couple of years, but boxes of waffles and cereal still find their way in my shopping cart for my kids each week. I’m not saying I will never purchase them again, but I am going to try to make a big batch of these Very Best Keto Waffles once or twice a month at least. I also recently got an awesome double Belgium waffle maker that certainly makes it easier to make a lot of waffles at once.
Tips for Making Keto Waffles
The waffle maker that I have has two plates so that you can add batter to the top, then turn the handle and there is a second waffle plate. Being able to make two at once sure speeds up the process.
In my opinion, if I am going to make waffles, I’m making a ton at once; however, if you’d rather make less, simply cut this recipe by 2/3 as I tripled it to get the amounts below. It isn’t hard to make. I dumped all the ingredients in my blender until they were thoroughly combined then I poured 1/3 cup of batter at a time on the waffle maker.
As you can see, these waffles turned out nice and fluffy. I’ve made 3 different batches this week as I tested the recipe. All four of my kids loved them, which says a lot. My son, who is my toughest keto critic, said they are his favorite keto recipe to date.
The Very Best Keto Waffles {low carb}
Ingredients
- 9 tbsp coconut oil
- 6 tbsp butter
- 15 eggs
- 1 cup coconut flour
- 3 oz cream cheese
- 3 tbsp heavy whipping cream
- 5 tbsp Swerve Confectioners
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
Optional:
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a blender and blend on high speed until the ingredients combine. Remove the lid and scrape the sides of the blender with a spatula then blend on high again.
- Preheat waffle maker. If needed, grease the waffle iron, then pour 1/3 cup batter onto the waffle grid. Using a spatula or the back of the measuring cup spread the batter out. (Note: I kept my waffles smaller and did not add enough batter to cover the entire grid. With a big family, I need more waffles not necessarily bigger ones.)A good maple syrup for those following a Ketogenic or low carb lifestyle is Lakanto Maple Syrup.

What is the serving size for your nutritional info!

Debbie Duran says
Made these for breakfast this morning and my husband Liked them! He is extremely picky. Thanks for all the work you do! Blessings!
Kasey says
Fantastic! So glad he loved them. Thank you for your kind words. Blessings to you!
Sabrina says
I didn’t know you had a waffles recipe!!!! I’m definitely going to be trying this soon!! Thank you, Kasey!!
Karen says
I got your double waffle maker and I love it. Thanks now I’ll have to try your waffles.
Kasey says
It is amazing! I love it too.
Donita says
Kasey, do you think these could be made into pancakes?
Kasey says
I’m not sure as I have only tested the batter as waffles.
Reg says
Will the batter keep in the fridge for a day or 2? Love the recipe!
Kasey says
I am not sure as I’ve not personally tried it. Coconut flour tends to suck up all the extra moisture in the batter and the longer it sits it will prob get worse. You could try, but I would think you’d need to add water before making them. I’m so glad you love this recipe.
Jackie Merlino says
I have a deep Belgium waffle maker. So will using 1/3 cup of batter make a serving size for the nutritional information? I am sure that it will 1/3 cup will no where fill it up. I just want to calculate the carbs correctly.
Kasey says
Yes, 1/3 cup is a serving on this recipe.
Donna says
would love to try them, sorry to ask, what is swerve confectioner?
Kasey says
It is a keto friendly sweetener.
Haley kline says
Do you know if almond flour can be used instead of coconut flour?
Kasey says
They are typically interchangeable. I cannot use almond flour due to a nut allergy. The ratio is 1 to 4 coconut to almond flour.
LaDonna says
So you would need 4 cups of almond flour?? Making sure.
.Kasey says
Yes, you use 4x more almond flour than coconut flour.
Regina says
Is there any way to get this down to a recipe for 4 instead of 14… There are only two of us.
Kasey says
Click on the number of servings in the recipe card and adjust it down to a number that sounds better for the two of you. Hope this helps!
Magriet says
Is the 1/3 cup serving for a regular waffle maker or the mini’s?
.Kasey says
Regular waffle maker
JoAnn Adams says
I tried a similar recipe and they waffles turned out like pancakes. They flattened right out, and were eggy. Did I not cook them long enough?
Nikki says
How do you reheat them when you make them for several days?
.Kasey says
They can be frozen in a freezer-safe container or wrapped individually. I would suggest rewarming in the oven wrapped in aluminum foil or an air fryer as they won’t be crispy otherwise.
Queen says
I have not tried this yet as i need a sub for tree nut products. My daughter and i have an allergy to tree nuts. Can you let me know what to use as a substitute?
Kasey says
I would talk to my allergist or research to find the right sub. My oldest daughter has very severe food allergies, so I understand how the wrong food can cause serious complications and I don’t want to be responsible for a reaction by making the wrong suggestion.
