My boys love breakfast. It is the one meal that I am always guaranteed they will eat.
They like waffles, but not hard ones, the waffles must be soft and every square MUST have maple syrup or honey.
I like waffles too but I must admit that I like crunchier ones that hold up for different toppings whether it is fruit, fruit syrup, eggs and bacon or tuna salad.
This recipe makes everyone happy. To make these soft coconut flour waffles crispy just pop them in the toaster. 🙂
We top our waffles with nut butter, honey, maple syrup or jam most days but feel free to plop yogurt and fruit on them. Or lemon curd. Or whipped cream. The possibilities are endless. 🙂
The recipe is simple. You might even have all the ingredients in your cupboards already.
Soft Coconut Flour Waffles
1/2 cup + 2 Tablespoons coconut flour- make sure there aren’t any clumps
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
4 eggs
1 Tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
1 cup coconut cream
1/2 cup water
Mix dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add wet ingredients and stir softly until combined. Cook on waffle iron. (My waffle iron has a timer, so I just set it to setting 4 and wait for the light to turn green, so I don’t have any directions to give other than cook until cooked. 🙂 )
Enjoy your waffles!! 🙂
These are safe for GAPS followers in stage 4, Paleo, and a S for Trim Healthy Mama followers.
Oh my, these look SO GOOD. I don’t have a waffle iron, but maybe I can translate some of these ingredients to a pancake recipe? Thanks for the idea!
I’m not sure how this recipe would work as pancakes, you might have to play around with the liquids. The batter would be really thick and may take a long time to cook as pancakes. If you do try it I would love to know how it turns out Loreann!
Oh I so wish I could make these!! I don’t have a waffle maker. I know my little girl would eat them up. It’s been eggs and salsa and sometimes butternut pancakes since we started GAPS and she is NOT a happy camper…but she is a trooper.
Aww!! I would bet you could find one at a resale shop or a Goodwill if you have one of those around.
What stage are you in right now? Are you seeing lots of changes?
oh wow-this is awesome! i am paleo and i have been looking for a good, grain-free waffle recipe. just pinned it. thank you so much!
Great! I hope you enjoy these waffles! I would love to know what you think. 🙂
Yum! These look good. Hubby and boys can’t handle coconut flour, but I might have to make these for myself. My mouth is watering just thinking about it!
I had to work up to large amounts of coconut flour because of all the fiber in it. It took a while.
If you make these I would love to know how you like them!
They look amazing and I’m so happy they’re paleo approved with the coconut flour! I desperately try not to eat white carbs, they don’t do me any good… recipes like this hit my sweet tooth and don’t feel like too much of a cheat. Thanks for sharing!
You are welcome Maria! I hope you like them! I try to stay away from white potatoes but if I get a craving I don’t feel too bad satisfying it every once in a while if I eat right the majority of the time. 🙂
Oh my, these look so amazing and good for you, too! I think I’ll be trying them this weekend!
Thanks Gennie! We really like them, I hope you enjoy them as well. 🙂
Must get a waffle iron! These look and sound great, its making me drool! 🙂
We just have a cheapy little thing at it works great! Hope you can find one soon. 🙂
It’s late on a Saturday night, and I would love to make these for Sunday breakfast, but I don’t have coconut cream….do you suppose almond milk would substitute?
Hi Mairi,
I’m super excited your want to try these coconut waffles.
I don’t think almond milk will substitute well for the coconut cream, because coconut cream is actually a solid not a liquid; It is all the fat at the top of a can of full fat coconut milk.
So sorry! Hope you have a chance to try these again soon! Thanks for coming by!
Is there any substitute for coconut cream that you would recommend?
Hi Tara,
I do not have any other recommendations for the coconut cream right now. I’ll have to play around with the recipe and see what I can come up with.

Made this this morning — good! tender! Served with unsweetened applesauce. Used clear liquid from coconut can in place of water. This thickened up so well — added more liquid to make thinner. YUM!
I’m so excited that you liked these waffles! Thanks for sharing the tip about using coconut water! I love hearing back about recipes, so thanks for taking the time to do so! 🙂
These are great! I just finished making these for hubby and me; we both loved them! I was going to make these for breakfast but we decided to have them for dinner! With real maple syrup and butter….these waffles are perfect! Thank you!
Oh Karen, I’m so glad that you enjoyed these!!
Hi there,
My husband make this waffle today but his used the canned coconut cream (which is sweet). Is this the correct coco cream to use?
Thanks Prya
Hi Prya,
I hope you enjoyed the waffles! The coconut cream I am referring to is the fat from the top of a can of full fat coconut milk, or the can of coconut cream from Trader Joe’s. It isn’t sweetened at all. I would think that the sweetened cream would work too, but I have never made the recipe with that type of coconut cream.
