Ingredients

• 1.5 cups almond flour
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 cup granulated erythritol
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 3 pieces large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
• 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon red food coloring
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 0.25 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons powdered erythritol

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, granulated erythritol, and salt.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, beat eggs with vanilla extract until frothy. Add buttermilk, apple cider vinegar, melted butter, and red food coloring. Mix well.

Step 3

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.

Step 4

Preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Spray with non-stick cooking spray if necessary.

Step 5

Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the preheated waffle iron and cook until crisp and slightly browned, approximately 3-5 minutes depending on the waffle maker. Repeat with remaining batter.

Step 6

While waffles are cooking, prepare the cream cheese topping by beating together the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, and powdered erythritol in a bowl until smooth and creamy.

Step 7

Serve the waffles warm, topped with a dollop of cream cheese mixture and additional berries or nuts if desired.
