Almond Butter and Jam Waffles are eggless and easy to prepare. Try this recipe if you love waffles but are skeptical about making them without eggs!
Easy Almond Butter and Jam Waffles
We love waffles for breakfast or brunch. While my family equally loves Eggless Pancakes (Light and Fluffy), I found making waffles is easy and mess-free! Also, we can easily freeze the waffles, so I like to make them in a big batch. Now, coming back to these waffles, I have added ½ cup of almond flour with all-purpose flour. Almond flour enhances the taste and also helps provide a delicate texture. To make this recipe healthier, you can swap half of the all-purpose flour with white whole wheat or whole wheat flour. You can also check out this recipe for whole wheat waffles: Banana Waffles / Eggless Whole Wheat Banana Waffles. Topping the waffles with almond butter provides a nutty and buttery flavor. Jam adds a sweet and fruity taste, making the waffles delicious and satisfying. However, go creative and add your choice of toppings. You can add your choice of jam or swap almond butter for your choice of nut butter. This recipe is quick, has easy-to-customize toppings, is made without eggs, and provides crispy golden waffles with a light and fluffy interior!
How To Make Almond Butter and Jam Waffles
Preheat your oven to 200°F and place a baking sheet with a wire rack inside. This step is optional, and if you are serving waffles immediately or later on, you do not need to use the oven. Whisk together flour, almond flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl for the waffles.
Pour the buttermilk, melted butter, vanilla, and almond extract, and whisk to combine. Be careful not to overmix. Cover and set the mixture aside for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. When the waffle iron is ready, pour about ½ cups of batter into each waffle well. I do not need to grease my waffle iron, but if you do, then grease it with cooking spray before pouring the batter.
Cook until crisp and golden brown, about 5-6 minutes, depending on your waffle iron. Transfer the cooked waffles to the warm oven, then continue with the rest of the batter.
For the topping, heat the jam in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave just until warm. To serve, spoon over almond butter, jam, and a little maple syrup or honey to taste. You can also top it with fresh fruits such as bananas or berries.
