If you’re missing carbs and hate watching the rest of the family munch on waffles and pancakes on the weekends while you’re stuck with eggs an avocado, then I’ve got you covered. Learn how to make the BEST keto waffles in under 15 minutes and I promise they’re so much better than the “regular” stuff.
They’re soft and fluffy and can be served for breakfast with no sugar maple syrup and fruit or savory topped with fried chicken, bacon and avocado. They can also be prepared ahead of time and frozen so you can pop one in the toaster as needed. 
To make keto waffles you will need:
- Eggs
- Almond flour (can sub 1:4 ratio, 2 tbsp coconut flour)
- Cream cheese (can sub with heavy whipping cream)
- Butter
- Sweetener (Erythritol, Swerve or MunkFruit sweetener)
Keto Maple Syrup:
Keto maple syrup is a little tricky to find because most “sugar-free” maple syrups contain hidden sugars. This Maple Syrup is the only brand we recommend (not sponsored!). It’s rich and thick and perfectly sweetened with natural sweeteners and is by far the best maple syrup we’ve found.

Why does it says 8 oz cream cheese 1/2 block in the recipe
I made these the other day and they were really good tasting. I’ve made other keto waffles from other websites and they either taste eggy, or alot of almond flour. I was skeptical about these but when I tred them, I was happy. Keeping this recipe for sure. Thank you.
Absolutely delicious. And soooo easy. Thank You!!!
Taste is good – BUT its really important to add one egg at a time. My batter was way too thin and I had to add more Almond Flour.
I really enjoyed this recipe but will certainly cut it in half next time. Flavor was so good and satisfied the craving. I put 2 strawberries and a little less than 1/4 of blueberries on mine (could of used less). Mine didn’t crisp but the flavor was there. I’m thinking that maybe next time I’ll separate my eggs and whip the whites separately then fold them in. That’s how I do normal waffles.
It says you can sun cream cheese with heavy cream. Use the same measurement as cream cheese?
These waffles are serious delicious, I added a dash of cinnamon too! I also topped with Blueberries. 5 stars for sure 🌟
I didn’t have vanilla so I used almond extract and used coconut oil. Of course put butter and sugar free syrup on them after they were done. Even more yummy than the first time I made them!!!
😋😋😋
I made these for breakfast today and used my little dash waffle iron. I was able to get 18 delicious heart shaped waffles with your recipe. I froze 11 of them for another time. So quick, easy, and yummy. Thank you!
Totally making these tonight…even the comments are making my mouth drool.
Delicious, I’ve tried, a few recipes and this is the closest to the real thing. I used Carmel extract instead, I’m out of vanilla. New staple in my house, Keto on!
Very good! Mine didn’t come out crispy either but that didn’t matter. Will make these a great deal. Would made a great sandwich bread also!
Can the batter be made ahead and used within 2-3 days?
I would not suggest that as the eggs will not hold up well.
Just tried these…taste good. On thing, mine didn’t come out crispy? I did use an artificial (Vegan?) Creamcheese….are they crispy like a normal waffle if made with real cream cheese?
Update….last one was cooked a bit hotter and the waffle iron was almost overfilled and it definitely seems more “waffle-like” So I might have been not cooking them right:)
can the batter be frozen?
Obviously not like real waffles but darn close. I find that the more crispier the waffle, the tastier it is. I have been missing my waffles for Sunday brunch and these were satisfying, will incorporate them into my diet from here on out. Not waffles but a great replacement.
These waffles are our go-to weekend brunch! We have made them 5 or 6 times, but the last time we made them we separated the egg whites, beat them to stiff peaks, and folded back in just prior to putting in the waffle iron. It’s a little more fussy but they had a fuller body. I think we will do that going forward!
These are great! Made breakfast for dinner and used my Mickey Mouse shaped waffle maker and it made 7. My husband even loved them! Heated the leftovers in the toaster this morning and they were still pretty good. Thanks!
Glad to hear! Thanks for stopping by 🙂
Yay! Thank you for this keto waffle recipe. I have been missing waffles since I started a keto diet. This recipe is quite good. It smells exactly like waffles as it cooks, the taste and texture have a hint of almond flour, but it’s minimal. Once you top your keto waffle (I like S/F Whipped Topping and a small handful of berries on mine) you cannot tell the difference at all.
Very good! Satisfied my urge for waffles. I made one mistake and decided there should be salt in the recipe. Nope – should have followed it exactly.
I’m not strict keto. I’m diabetic well controlled with a low carb diet. I altered this recipe with 15 raspberries pureed with 1 1/2 tblsp of Too Good berry greek yogurt plus 1 tblsp of coconut flour to thicken up. These were pretty great.
This recipe was good, better than others I have tried. Definitely will make again.
I agree with Catherine! Wonderful!!!
Made these yesterday for my family and AMAZING!!!! So happy we are living the Keto LIFE! Thank you for this amazing recipe!
Has anyone tried freezing these waffles? I made a half recipe for a weekend breakfast, but I’d love to try making a full recipe and saving the extras for a weekday breakfast.
I have frozen these to eat throughout the week. I feel like they freeze beautifully, but you will want to heat them up in a toaster or toaster oven. Of course they are better when fresh made but heated in the toaster oven until the edges are slightly crisp is a very close second! And while I agree the ChocZero syrup is good, to me I much prefer the sugar free Mrs. Butterworths. I find it’s much thicker and richer tasting, without the ‘sliminess’ found in other sf products.
This is definitely the best waffle recipe. I was skeptical as batter seems thin but it is perfect. Not eggy at all. I used half cream cheese half whipping cream because thats was handy.
OMG! Just tried this recipe. Added a tsp maple extract because, no syrup. Cut the erythritol to 1 1/2 Tbls to suit me, no yuck cooling or aftertaste. These are SO GOOD. Taste like regular waffles. Will be a regular for me. I filled the waffle iron each time and they were beautiful. Granular & gritty ? You did something way wrong !
Taste eggy, but they did look like flour waffles. Not terrible, but I don’t think I’ll make this again.
