Waffles With Whipped Cream
While waffles may be hard to replace on the keto diet in terms of crunchiness, they are easy to match when it comes to flavor. This recipe yields a light, flavorful batter that can be adapted to your needs. For a thicker batter, use fewer egg whites.

I have a question, how many waffles would be a serving? I was able to make 6 with the recipe.
Hi Renee,
6-8 waffles sounds about right. Glad you liked the recipe!
I am unable to do the sugar substitutes, what can be used in place of? Thanks
Hi Sharon,
Thank you for your question. I am sorry you are not able to do sugar substitutes. In this case, you can try skipping step and make up with flavor by adding berries on cooked waffles. Hope this helps!
I’m also unable to use sugar substitutes, but recently found monk fruit is ok.
Have you tried monk fruit? Lots of people who can’t tolerate low carb sweeteners can tolerate monk fruit, AND it has no aftertaste. Really. I buy it at Walmart.
Can these waffles be cooked and frozen to save time in the mornings?
Most waffle recipes call for separating the eggs. Adding the yolks to the other ingredients and folding in the whipped whites at the end makes for an airy light batter and improves the overall texture. Wouldn’t that work with this recipe to promote the crispy outside and tender inside that you expect in a waffle?
Does the dietary fiber count against your carbs?
It does not count against your NET Carbs, but does count if you are tracking total carbs instead. Net carbs are calculated by subtracting dietary fiber from total carbs.
