Low Carb Chocolate Pumpkin Waffle (FM)
Recipes | November 22, 2016
* This waffle is low in carbs and it’s only about 300 calories (not counting the chocolate sauce). My portion size would be one or two quarters with the chocolate sauce on top.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup almond flour
2 tbsp pumpkin pure
3 tbsp granulated Swerve
dash of pumpkin pie spice
dash of cardamom
1 egg
2 tbsp almond milk
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 scoop (15g) low carb chocolate whey protein powder (I use Jay Robb)
___________
Ingredients for Chocolate topping:
1 tbsp coconut oil
1 tbsp coconut manna
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tbsp sugar substitute (I use Swerve)
___________
Instructions:
- Plug in your waffle maker and turn it on high.
- In a medium size bowl mix all the dry ingredients for the waffle.
- Add the egg, almond milk, and pumpkin pure into the dry mixture and mix well until smooth.
- Pour the entire mixture into your waffle maker and wait until the light turns off. Make sure it runs the whole cycle. It should be about a minute or so. Transfer the waffle onto a plate.
- Mix all the ingredients for the chocolate topping and pour the chocolate all over the waffle. Serve & enjoy.
Z-Tip: you can save it for later – keep it in the fridge, it’s delicious even when it’s cold.

Same here Morana…I prepare waffles every Sunday and I eat the entire waffles with peanut butter on top of it! Do you think Zu needs to eat only a quarter of it? Come on! 🙂

I don’t have a waffle-maker; do you think the batter could work as a pancake instead or no?

See my comment below. Ill let you know how my pancake comes out.

Pancakes are a go! I made 2 with Z’s recipe. I heated coconut oil in a cast iron skillet. Yummo!

FYI make sure to use Whey protein and nothing else. I used something slightly different and spent an hour cleaning out my waffle maker. Also might have been because I used medium heat instead of high. Today I am going to try it again but make a pancake in skillet just to be safe.
