GRAIN-FREE PALEO WAFFLES WITH COCONUT FLOUR
If you are looking to turn traditional waffles into a grain-free paleo treat, this recipe made with coconut flour is for you! I created this one on a hot Sunday morning in Laguna Beach, when I was setting up a quick homemade brunch that was healthier than the waffles you get when you eat out in a restaurant. I feel making your own food is always the best option to maintain your healthy eating habit, so most of the time, I prefer to eat at home and only grab a drink when I am out. These paleo waffles are a winner: they are free from grains, dairy, and eggs and they have a delicious flavor.

COCONUT FLOUR WAFFLES
Steps:
- Directions: Mix eggs, then add sweetener (read notes), and coconut oil, mix well then add coconut flour, following baking powder, baking soda, pinch of salt, stir and add milk last. You might want to add more if it's too thick. Combine everything well, until the texture is smooth. The batter will be thicker than traditional waffles, but not far off. Preheat the waffle maker brush oil on the waffle iron and scoop the batter in and pour over the waffle iron. Close the lid and wait until it is ready to open. Once waffle is done, be careful when you remove it. The texture of the waffles with coconut flour is different so they rip easily. Carefully start from one corner and remove at ones. NOTE** Use a sweetener that supports your diet. I used sugar, but let's say you'd like to use liquid stevia, so I'd suggest for you to use like 1 teaspoon or to taste. As for coconut oil, you can melt the coconut oil in the pot of warm water, placing a jar in and waiting for a few minutes until it's easy for you to scoop. I said it in the directions, but I feel the need to say it again: These waffles are NOT your typical traditional waffles, they are very soft, and they rip easier than when made with all purpose flour. You can also use low fat 'regular' milk, even soy milk would work fine. Any other add-ins: cinnamon, nutmeg, powdered ginger etc. I used coconut sugar and increased the coconut milk to between 3/4 & 1 cup.

Tips:

- Make sure your batter is the right consistency. It should be thick and fluffy, but not too dry or wet.
- Don't overcook your waffles. Coconut flour waffles can cook quickly, so keep an eye on them and remove them from the waffle iron as soon as they're golden brown.
- Serve your waffles with your favorite toppings. Coconut flour waffles are great with butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
