Good to know

These waffles are simple, quick and really cosy. They smell warmly of cinnamon and have a rich, nutty texture. Just right when you want something easy.

Swaps

Maple syrup → date paste (adds a little fibre). Almond milk → coconut milk drink from a carton (usually a little creamier). Coconut oil → ghee (provides small amounts of fat-soluble vitamins). Almond flour → hazelnut flour (similarly low in carbs, with its own nutty flavour).

Allergens

Contains egg and almonds, so not suitable for people with an egg or nut allergy. Generally fine for children if they tolerate egg and almonds well; the ingredients are normal during pregnancy, but don't eat the raw batter with egg.
