These are, hands down, the best waffles I’ve made so far. If I could rate my own recipes, I’d seriously give these waffles 28 stars. I couldn’t stop eating them! And it was great since I made them for Laura but she could only eat half of one because she thought they were so rich sooooooo I got to eat all of them. That butt be growin’!!
So Tuesdays are my day off. That means I usually do laundry, cook a couple meals for the week and try to clean my kitchen that I will just get dirty within 30 minutes of cleaning it. It’s frustrating. A never ending dirty kitchen is dumb. Is it selfish to want a boyfriend strictly for helping me with dishes? I mean, I would do the cooking every night…isn’t that fair to have someone just wash the dishes?! I’d be down to kiss the person as well. A makeout session AND dinner. Why the hell wouldn’t my imaginary boyfriend do the damn dishes? This paragraph is pointless.
Guess what I’m doing this weekend? Well, other than playing in the park with my friends from CrossFit Broadway then most likely going out dancing once again on Saturday in hopes of dancing with the great gay guy who spun me around the dance floor…I’ll be working at a Health Fair at CrossFit Eminence! Can you say run-on sentence? Yes, yes you can. CrossFit Eminence will be holding a health fair this Saturday May 19th from 8am-3pm which will have all kinds of fun info and stuff to do. Like the Body Fat Truck. That’s what I’m going to do with my Saturday. Get in the body fat thing-a-ding and cry for the rest of the afternoon. I’M KIDDING, jesus. It might be cool to find out how much fat is hanging out around my lower section of my body. Ew.
I hear they also will have a dunk tank. I feel very neutral about that. Neutral meaning not good. If someone tries to get me to go in the dunk tank, I will absolutely not act like it’s funny nor play along. B*tch mode. Does that make me a bad person? Kind of. But me without make up on is scary. And the last thing I want to do is dunk my head under water then have people frightened of me and not check out my website. F*ck you acne. You’re mean. You make me look like a bad person.
Anywho, if you have any free time on Saturday, come to CrossFit Eminence between 8am and 3pm for all kinds of stuff to make you a healthier person. I will also be doing a giveaway with treats and apparel! Don’t miss out! Maybe you can go in the dunk tank for me?! YES? Cool. You’re awesome. Whoever you are.
Chocolate Waffles
- Yield: 4-5 1x
Ingredients
- 1.5 cup almond meal/flour
- 1/3 cup canned coconut milk
- 1/4 cup Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips or dark chocolate chips
- 2 eggs, whisked
- 2 heaping tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or raw honey (some kind of sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- sprinkle of cinnamon
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Plug in your waffle iron. You don’t have a waffle iron? Why? Because it’s the most pointless tool in the kitchen and takes up a balls ton of room? True. But buy one. Waffles are awesome.
- Whisk your eggs in a medium-large sized bowl.
- Add your coconut milk and sweetener and whisk together with eggs.
- Next add your almond flour and mix more!
- Then add your cocoa powder baking soda and mix together.
- Lastly, add in your chocolate chips, vanilla, salt and cinnamon. Mix together thoroughly.
- Pour into your waffle iron and cooking until cooked through. It took about 4-5 minutes for mine to cook through and crisp up.
Notes
1. I have no idea if these will work as pancakes.
2. Roasted, unsalted almonds were on sale so I just made my own almond meal in a food processor. Meaning I threw the almonds in a food processor and turned in on for 30 seconds. Ta dah! Almond meal. Easy peasy, cheap and squeezy.

I’m going to pee my pants because I am so excited about these freakin waffles.
Your comment to your pictures made me laugh out loud. Sometimes I think of taking pictures of my food, but because I’ve already eaten most of it the picture wouldn’t turn out well… you did well with your picture presentation of a partially tasted waffle! I will be making this in the future!
There are real life guys that will do the dishes and make out with you….I was lucky enough to catch one of em, so they do exists and are not a figment of your imagination:)
What is with the Crossfit guys…..you are gorgeous with a rocking bod…….I’m guessing you are so awesome they are intimidated by you, they need to grow a pair and ask you out!
agreed Kristin!! A-GREED.
Hahaha girl I just did a post on paleo waffles and I said they would *probably work as pancakes. Truth = I have NO clue. Whatevs. Someone is bound to try it and the worst that can happen is they leave us a nasty comment that they do NOT in fact work as pancakes. Or me rather, because you were straight up like ‘Ya I dunno.’
Im going to need to add cocoa powder to mine next. Gooood idea.
OMG Juli you are a freakin mind reader or something! Just last night I was digging my food dehydrator out of my kitchen cabinets when I came across my dear old friend the waffle iron. I thought to myself “oh waffle iron it’s been so long, we need to find some delicious paleo waffles to make in you.” Oh low and behold you post WAFFLES!!!
If you find a man to do the dishes, HOLD ON TIGHTLY!!! As soon as you start cooking a large portion assume you have taken on the WHOLE housewife thing and that you will do them. Not.Fun.
PS Can I ask what kind of makeup you use? Acne is my enemy that I constantly wage war against. CONSTANTLY.
PPS…Can’t wait to try this Recipe!!
Hey Rebecca! I use Napoleon foundation stick. It covers up everything. I still have acne, but it definitely makes me feel better lol.
And people think paleo eating is restrictive… pshh I need to show them these waffles! Your pictures are looking great too, and I always strategically place the pretty side of food in the front angle hah.
You are so funny Juli! I will be making this recipe soon. I look forward to it!
I once asked if it was wrong if I only wanted a girlfriend to cook me delicious and nutritious meals. Some girl heard me and was not amused and I was told I had serious issues. I was joking, of course.
Is there a way to make these without eating all of the chocolate chips prior to mixing everything? I’m afraid i don’t have the willpower…
