I am definitely NOT one of those people who skips right past Thanksgiving and starts celebrating Christmas in November (random side note, have you seen the Nordstrom's sign? Love it, Google it if you haven't seen it!). That said, I have been thinking about Christmas morning waffles. Our Christmas morning tradition is a waffle bar. I make homemade waffles and everyone decorates their own with a wide selection of yummy toppings. It's fun. I have been loving all things gingerbread and experimented with these gingerbread waffles yesterday morning to be sure they'd be yummy for the more important Christmas breakfast. Oh man, these were a hit. I should have doubled the recipe. Honestly, I just ate mine plain, nothing on it. I just really liked the flavor. These will definitely be our Christmas morning waffles. I hope you enjoy them as much as we did. What are your Christmas morning traditions? I'd love to hear your comments! (Speaking of Christmas, don't forget to send your peeps to my blog, and have them enter your name in the comments section so I can give you $25 for Christmas shopping!)
2 c almond flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/3 c honey
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground or fresh ginger
1/2 tsp cardamom
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/2 c almond milk
4 tbsp grapeseed oil
2 eggs (these could be made vegan by subbing 2 tbsp flax with 3 extra tbsp milk, or with applesauce)
3 tbsp molasses
1/2 tsp vanilla
Mix all ingredients until well combined and a spreadable batter consistency. Coat waffle iron with non-stick spray and cook per iron instructions. I served these with a little almond butter, sliced strawberries and of course a little pure maple syrup for the kiddos. Enjoy!
