Besides dairy, gluten/grains I have had to remove eggs from my diet. It is so challenging to find ways around this.
Especially if the recipe contains 6 eggs, as in this delicious waffle recipe!
Do you have any suggestions? Thank you.
Hi Kathleen, I totally understand! Unfortunately it’s super hard to cook with coconut flour without eggs, but Real Plans allows you to filter so you’re only shown recipes that are egg-free. I’m recommending it now for all my egg-free people (since I use a lot of eggs when I cook)
Quick question. I have a daughter-in-law who is highly allergic to coconut can I replace coconut flour for almond flour in most recipes?
Hi Sara, it’s really individual based on the recipe- in this recipe you would need to increase the flour if you were using almond- your best bet would be to find a recipe that works within your dietary preferences already :)
Sorry – these really didn’t work well. The batter is so thin and didn’t taste like pumpkin at all.
One of our go-to GAPS compliant waffle recipes!! Thanks Cara! My kids love to gobble them up!!
For some reason my mixture came out extremely runny. I had no choice but to add a 1/2 cup more of pumpkin purée. I think I could of even added more. Maybe 2 tbl of vanilla was the reason? And only one tablespoon on the waffle maker was real confusing? For each little section maybe. Any how I was able to make it work out decently. Added salt tho is important and a bit less nutmeg for my liking. Thx for posting!
Hi Rachel, if it’s too runny (it’s usually due to egg size) you can add more coconut flour 1 tablespoon at a time, and let it sit for a minute or two and the coconut flour will absorb the liquid.
Great recipe, thank you, Cara! I followed the recipe loosely, used Maple instead of honey (not on GAPS), skipped the nutmeg, and added a pinch of salt. They worked out perfectly. My pick eating daughter loved them
For those wondering, I used about 1/3 of a cup per waffles.
