If you are looking to turn traditional waffles into a grain free paleo treat, this recipe made with coconut flour is for you! 
I created this one on a hot Sunday morning in Laguna Beach, when I was setting up a quick home made brunch that was healthier that the waffles you get when you eat out in a restaurant.
I feel like making your own food is always the best option to maintain your healthy eating habit, so most of the time I prefer to eat at home and only grab a drink when I am out.
These paleo waffles are a winner: they are free from grains, dairy and eggs and they have a delicious flavor given by the naturally sweet flavor of the coconut flour and the tigernut protein mix.
You can find the tigernut protein mix I used at this link , but regular tigernut flour will work great as well for this paleo waffle recipe. Its nutty taste, combined with the delicious hint of coconut flour, allows you to keep the amount of maple syrup on the low end.
Here’s your recipe. It’s quick, easy and a great relief for those that are trying to eat grain free and don’t want to give up a nice waffle brunch!
