In our on-going adventures of finding healthy grain-free options to our favorite breakfast foods, I came up with this recipe. Grain-free waffles! Pass the syrup! They are super easy to make and if you double the batch, you can freeze a ton of them! Did someone say “lego my eggo”? The cool part is that these waffles are green inside, due to a chemical reaction between the sun-butter and the baking soda….very cool! If you like, you can substitute almond butter too.

Grain Free Waffles

Ingredients:

• 3 medium banana
• 3 medium apples, peeled and cored
• 1 (16oz) container of sun-butter (or you can use smooth almond butter)
• 6 medium pastured eggs
• 3 Tbsp arrowroot powder — where to find
• 3 Tbsp pure vanilla
• 1 1/2 tsps baking soda
• coconut oil for greasing waffle iron

Directions:

• Puree apple and banana in a food processor
• Use the whisk attachment on your electric mixer and whip sun-butter on high until smooth
• Add puree and remaining ingredients to whipped sun-butter and continue to whip until combined
• Grease your hot waffle maker with coconut oil (for each waffle you make).
• Use about 1 ladle of batter per 8-by-4-inch waffle onto hot waffle iron for 3-5 minutes until browned. Do not fill up entire waffle maker, leave about 40% unfilled so that the batter can spread. If your waffle is soft or floppy, it’s not ready yet – keep cooking for another minute or two!
• Eat your Grain Free Waffles immediately or store flat in freezer and make your own breakfast by reheating in toaster – the waffles will be firm enough
• Makes about 2.5 dozen Grain Free Waffles!
