Low Carb Strawberry Waffles with Cream Cheese Icing

If you have a little time to make your breakfast, you’ll love making (and eating) these low carb waffles. The batter is filled with dehydrated strawberries for a light fruit flavor and crunch too. The waffles are so perfectly buttery that you won’t even need syrup. What’s more, each waffle gets paired with tons of cream cheese icing. The icing is super easy to make before the waffles get cold, and you won’t regret it. The good news is you can make multiple servings of waffles and icing and keep the leftovers for more breakfasts. Keep the cooked waffles and prepared icing stored separately from each other in your refrigerator. You can microwave the waffles to reheat them or reheat them in a pan on your stove. If your icing separates or becomes too soft, re-whip it with a mixer.

Keto Mother’s day recipe inspiration

Many Carb Manager recipes provide inspiration for celebratory meals. To make a Keto Mother’s day brunch recipe, why not try these strawberry waffles? Something sweet for breakfast or brunch is perfect to celebrate mom. You might also use this waffle recipe for birthdays or Spring holidays.

I don’t own a waffle iron

If you don’t own a waffle iron, you can still make this recipe. The batter cooks just like pancake batter as well. Heat a pan that has been sprayed with pan spray over medium-low heat before you pour your batter in. Let the batter start bubbling in the center before you flip it over to finish cooking. It won’t look like a waffle, but it tastes just like one!

Other tools you’ll need

Aside from a waffle iron or maker, you’ll need a couple of extra things. You’ll need a stand mixer or a hand mixer and bowl. You’ll also need an additional mixing bowl and whisk.

Recipe Steps

steps 4

20 min

  • Step 1

    Whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, salt, baking powder, powdered erythritol, and chopped dehydrated strawberries in a large mixing bowl. Next, whisk in almond milk and eggs. Melt the butter and whisk it into the batter. If you feel the waffle batter is too thick, thin it out with additional almond milk.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Turn on a waffle iron to heat. Once the waffle iron is ready, pour about ½ cup of batter into it to make the first waffles. Cook your waffle and repeat until all the batter is used up and your waffles are made. You can read the recipe introduction for instructions if you do not own a waffle iron.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Make the cream cheese icing by first whipping the heavy cream to stiff peaks. Transfer the whipped cream aside for now as you place the cream cheese in your mixer. Whip the cream cheese until it’s soft and fluffy, then whip powdered erythritol into the cream cheese. Whip the whipped cream back into the cream cheese to complete the icing.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Serve the waffles with cream cheese icing either directly on them or on the side. You can also add the icing to a piping bag fitted with a cupcake tip to pipe large dollops of frosting on the waffles, as pictured. If you don’t have piping bags, use a large Ziploc bag with the corner cut off.

      I think CM needs to take the "low carb" off of this recipe title.

        These calories are so unrealistic for someone doing a calorie deficit... are they correct?

          I looked up everything and yeah, it seems right. The only calorie save seems to be lack of sugar

        Is something wrong with the calorie estimation for this recipe? It would kill my whole day.
