Waffles are something fine – especially when they come freshly baked from the hot iron and exude their wonderfully sweet scent. If you are looking for an alternative to the otherwise carbohydrate-rich treat, you should definitely try our homemade low-carb waffles!
High in protein and wonderfully crispy
Sure, no other waffle recipe comes close to Grandma’s, but you should definitely try this one for low-carb waffles! The waffles consist of only five ingredients, which are one thing above all: rich in protein! And so you can treat yourself to the low-carb waffles in the evening without a guilty conscience because they fill you up for a long time and do not have a negative effect on fat burning – on the contrary: the little protein hearts even boost them!
Choose low-carb toppings so you don’t miss out on the benefits of low-carb waffles. Low-sugar fruits such as berries (also frozen goods) or grapefruit, natural yogurt, and pure cocoa powder still ensure a lot of waffle fun on the plate. If you prefer something savory, you can upgrade the waffle batter with grated seasonal vegetables, small cheese slicers, and spices – whatever tastes good is allowed! Here is the recipe for making low-carb waffles yourself!
