Make delicious, high-protein breakfast waffles using cottage cheese and almond flour. This recipe is perfect for a low-carb or keto diet.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (full fat or low fat)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Cooking spray or butter for the waffle iron

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle iron and lightly coat the plates with cooking spray or butter.
  2. Place the cottage cheese, eggs, almond flour, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt into a blender or food processor.
  3. Blend the mixture until it is completely smooth. You should have a uniform, pourable batter.
  4. Pour the batter onto the hot waffle iron, using the amount appropriate for your machine size.
  5. Cook according to your waffle iron’s instructions, usually until the steam lessens and the waffle is golden brown and firm.
  6. Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite low carb topping ideas.

Notes

  • For a smoother texture, use small curd cottage cheese or blend the cottage cheese separately before adding dry ingredients.
  • If you prefer a slightly different flavor, substitute ricotta cheese for the cottage cheese to make ricotta waffles.
  • To make these keto cottage cheese pancakes, simply cook the batter in a skillet like regular pancakes.
  • This recipe yields about 4 standard waffles.
