Simple Low-Carb Dessert Waffles

Low-carb keto dessert waffles.

After finding my favorite keto ice-cream recipe, the quest for a nice dessert waffle to pair it with ensued.

If you are wanting something more like a waffle cone, there are lots of recipes online.

I just wanted to keep it simpleโ€”nothing too crisp or too breadyโ€”so I came up with a quick recipe to make in the waffle iron, perfect for keto ice-cream sandwiches.

The dessert waffle could also be dressed up with sugar-free chocolate chips, blueberries, or cinnamon for more pizzazz.

But for now, let’s have it plain and simple.

If you are looking for a good, basic savory low-carb waffle, I have a recipe for chaffles (cheesy waffles) here.

Fortune Cookie Flavor

These waffles are flavored like fortune cookies with a combination of almond flour and vanilla extract and do not have rising agents like baking powder or baking soda.

Almond flour is one of the more expensive keto flours but most recipes do not require much of it so one bag can last a long time. Once opened, keep it in the fridge or freezer to maintain freshness.

If you are new to the world of low-carb, sugar-free foods, be sure to test out the amount of low-carb sweetener to suit your taste. I use very little while others may prefer more.

This recipe uses erythritol, a favorite sweetener in the keto world because, just like stevia and monkfruit, it does not affect blood sugar levels.

I do find these waffles a bit dry unless brushed with melted butter. But, as hoped, they pair nicely with the keto ice-cream, leaving it to be the star of the show.
