Waffles with Bacon, Blueberries, and Maple Syrup

Serves 2

For the waffle:

  • ¼ cup coconut flour, sifted

  • 1 tsp. coconut sugar

  • ¼ tsp. baking powder

  • ¾ cup egg whites, (use cartoned egg white, or separate approx. 4 eggs)

  • ¼ cup almond milk, unsweetened

  • 1 tbsp. applesauce, unsweetened

  • 1 tsp. coconut oil, melted

To serve:

  • 4 slices bacon, fried

  • ¼ cup blueberries

  • 2 tbsp. maple syrup

Add the coconut flour, sugar and baking powder to a bowl, mix to combine and set aside.

In a separate bowl, add the egg whites, almond milk and unsweetened applesauce, and mix lightly.

Now fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until a thick batter is formed. Add the melted coconut oil, gently mix and set aside for 5 minutes.

Heat up the waffle iron and if necessary grease slightly. Once hot, add the waffle batter and cook until browned on the outside and cooked on the inside. Repeat this process until all the batter is used up.

Serve with bacon and blueberries, and drizzle over the maple syrup.
