Cuisine: Paleo
Serves: 1 serving
Ingredients
- 1 ripe banana
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 ripe banana, 2 eggs, 1/4 cup almond flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Make sure your banana is ripe for the best flavor and sweetness.
- In a medium mixing bowl, mash the ripe banana with a fork until it becomes a smooth puree. This will serve as the base of your waffle batter.
- Add the 2 eggs to the mashed banana and whisk together until fully combined. The mixture should be smooth and well-blended.
- Next, incorporate the 1/4 cup of almond flour into the banana and egg mixture. Stir until the almond flour is fully integrated, ensuring there are no lumps.
- Sprinkle in 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix well to ensure that the baking powder is evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. If your waffle maker requires it, lightly grease the cooking surface with a small amount of coconut oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Once the waffle maker is hot, pour the batter into the center of the waffle iron. Use a spatula to spread it evenly if necessary, but be careful not to overfill.
- Close the waffle maker and cook for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown and cooked through. Cooking times may vary depending on your specific waffle maker.
- Once cooked, carefully remove the waffle from the waffle maker using a fork or spatula. Allow it to cool slightly on a plate.
- Serve your Protein Paleo Waffle warm, topped with your favorite Paleo-friendly toppings such as fresh fruit, nuts, or a drizzle of almond butter for added flavor and nutrition.
- Enjoy your delicious and nutritious single-serve Protein Paleo Waffle!
Tips
- • Use a very ripe banana for maximum natural sweetness and smoother batter consistency • Whisk eggs and banana thoroughly to create a smooth, lump-free base • Preheat your waffle maker completely before pouring batter to ensure crispy edges • Don't overfill the waffle maker - this can cause messy overflow and uneven cooking • Let the waffle rest for a minute after cooking to help it set and become more structurally stable • Experiment with toppings like berries, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of honey for extra flavor • Store any leftover batter in the refrigerator and use within 24 hours for best results
