What Syrup Is Best for Keto Waffles Without Almond Flour?
Serve these delicious keto waffles with butter and sugar-free syrup. I recommend trying Lakanto Sugar-Free Maple syrup for the most realistic taste among sugar-free options.
Can You Make Keto Waffles Ahead & Freeze?
Yes! I recommend you make a double batch and freeze these waffles for up to 3 months. Let them cool completely, then freeze in ziplock bags, separating each waffle with wax or parchment paper to prevent sticking. Reheat in the oven, toaster, or microwave for a quick and easy keto-friendly breakfast.
Tips for Perfect Keto Waffles:
- Don’t skip separating the eggs – it’s key for achieving the right texture.
- Use room temperature ingredients for better mixing.
- Experiment with the sweetener amount to find your perfect level of sweetness.
- Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking for even fluffier waffles.

Keto Waffles FAQ
Can I use almond flour instead of coconut flour?
Not as an even swap. Coconut flour absorbs much more liquid, so you’d need about 1 cup of almond flour in place of the 4 tablespoons of coconut flour. For an almond flour version, try my chaffles or cream cheese pancakes.
Why do you separate the eggs?
Whipping the whites separately and folding them in makes the waffles light and fluffy instead of dense and eggy. It’s the secret to waffles that taste like the real thing.
Are these keto waffles nut-free?
They’re made without almond flour or other nuts. Coconut is technically labeled as a tree nut in the U.S., but most people with tree nut allergies can eat it. If you have a nut allergy, check with your doctor first.

Keto Waffles Without Almond Flour (Coconut Flour Waffles)
Fluffy, lightly sweet keto waffles made with coconut flour, no almond flour needed! Whipped egg whites make them light and crisp, and they freeze beautifully for easy breakfasts.
Ingredients
- 5 large eggs, separated
- 4 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated monk fruit sweetener
- ½ cup butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron and grease it well.
Separate the eggs, putting the whites in one bowl and the yolks in another.
Beat the egg whites with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes.
To the yolks, add the coconut flour, baking powder, monk fruit, melted butter, vanilla and heavy cream. Whisk until smooth.
Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture in two batches, just until no white streaks remain. Don't overmix, or the waffles will lose their fluff.
Spoon the batter into the waffle iron (about ½ cup for a regular iron or 2–3 tablespoons for a mini) and cook until golden and crisp, about 3 to 5 minutes.
Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve warm with butter and sugar-free syrup.
Notes
To freeze: Cool completely, then freeze in a zip-top bag with parchment between the waffles for up to 3 months.
To reheat: Pop them straight from the freezer into the toaster, or warm at 350°F for 5–8 minutes.
Mini waffle maker: Use 2–3 tablespoons of batter per waffle. You'll get about twice as many small waffles.
Why coconut flour? It's nut-free and very absorbent, so a little goes a long way. Don't swap it 1:1 with almond flour.
