Ingredients

wet ingredients

4 large eggs, whisked
2 tablespoons gingerbread syrup - or 1 tablespoon molasses**
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon maple syrup

dry ingredients

1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup almond meal, finely ground - also called almond flour
2 tablespoons coconut flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
pinch of sea salt
cranberries, bananas, whipped cream, maple syrup, honey, etc - optional

Instructions

In a medium size bowl, combine 4 whisked eggs, gingerbread syrup (or molasses), vanilla extract and maple syrup . Mix well to combine until smooth.
Whisk in baking powder, almond meal, coconut flour, spices, and sea salt. Mix until well combined and no lumps remain.
Grease your waffle iron according to the manual's instructions; then, pour batter into the waffle iron and cook waffles until done (when the light on your iron indicates done) Repeat this process until the batter is gone; recipe makes 2-3 large waffles depending on waffle iron size.
Top with butter/ghee, nuts, and/or fruit, whipped cream and syrup. Up to you!

Notes

** If you opt to use molasses instead, make sure to use unsulphured molasses. Blackstrap molasses is processed differently, and while technically a 'cleaner' swap, it is not sweet but rather bitter and will affect the flavor of your waffles.
