📝 Ingredients

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1
    Preheat your waffle iron to medium-high heat. Lightly grease if necessary.
  2. 2
    In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  3. 3
    In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and melted butter (or oil) until smooth.
  4. 4
    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few small lumps are fine.
  5. 5
    Gently fold in the diced ham and shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  6. 6
    Ladle approximately 1/2 cup of batter onto the hot waffle iron (or the amount recommended by your waffle maker). Close the lid and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy, and the steam has largely subsided.
  7. 7
    Carefully remove the cooked waffles and serve immediately. Repeat with the remaining batter.

💡 Notes

These waffles are fantastic on their own, but also pair well with a fried egg, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or a dash of hot sauce. For meal prep, cook a larger batch, cool completely, and store in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2-3 months. Reheat in a toaster, oven, or waffle iron for best results.
