Super Healthy Carrot Cake Waffles

 

(Makes 2 waffles)

 

◾1/2 cup flour (oat flour, almond flour, coconut flour, whole wheat flour, or plain white flour)

◾1/2 tsp cinnamon

◾1/4 tsp salt

◾1/4 tsp baking soda

◾1 tsp baking powder

◾pinch stevia extract, or 2 tbsp agave or pure maple syrup

◾1/4 cup shredded carrot (32g)

◾1/3 cup milk of choice (decrease by 2tbsp if using the agave/syrup) (80g is 1/3c)

◾1 tbsp more milk of choice or 1 tbsp oil (15g)

◾1 tsp pure vanilla extract (4g)

 

Combine first 6 ingredients in a mixing bowl, and stir well. In a separate bowl, combine remaining ingredients. Grease your waffle maker, with oil or oil spray (be sure to grease well if using the oil-free version), then let it preheat. Pour wet ingredients into dry, and stir to make a batter. When the iron is hot, pour half the batter into the center of the iron, and close the lid. (My machine has a light that goes out when the waffle is ready. Don’t lift the lid before the waffle is finished cooking.)

 

Ideas for topping…if needed:  Sugar free syrup or protein glaze (mix a ¼ scoop whey, and drops of water to make a glaze mixture).
