What are some of the best paleo waffle recipes?
The biggest advantage of owning your own waffle maker is the ability to only consume the ingredients that you want.
This is what I mean… if I’m eating Paleo, Gluten-Free, Vegan, etc. I can choose those types of ingredients to go in my waffle batter, pour it right into my waffle iron, and I can enjoy waffles (paleo waffles) on my own terms.
If there are ingredients in frozen waffles or pre-mixed waffle batter that I don’t or can’t eat, I don’t have to! I can still enjoy the food I love while keeping to a diet that I have.
In this article, we outline ten of our favorite Paleo waffle recipes.
You may be someone who should just buy pre-made waffles and heat them up in a toaster
There, I said it. In case you haven’t noticed, we are a website dedicated to waffle makers. We review them and give advice, along with a link to waffle makers on Amazon or on other marketplaces.
We make a small commission at no extra cost to you when you click on one of our links and buy a product.
So, it’s kind of a big deal for us to say that you may be better off buying Eggos or something like that.
There are two ways you can know if you’re this type of person.
1. You have no dietary restrictions (self-imposed or otherwise).
This means that you’re perfectly fine consuming whatever ingredients, preservatives, substances, etc. that a company decides to put in their food.
This is not a bad thing, just reality. You’re not looking for almond flour waffles, grain-free waffles, paleo waffles, or gluten-free waffles. You just want waffles!
2. You don’t care that much about taste.
Some people really just don’t care about what things taste like, which is perfectly fine. If that’s you, then you’re probably better off buying generic frozen waffles and just heating them up in a toaster.
Or maybe you really just need Belgian waffles as part of your fancy breakfast cuisine because you need a conduit for maple syrup, fresh berries, or chocolate chips!
Again, no judgment from me! I drench my waffles with maple syrup!
However, if you do care what things taste AND if you also are concerned with what you put in your body, you need to have control over all ingredients.
That means that you buy a pre-made batter that fits your needs or you make your own waffle batter.
For those of you who love waffles but are trying to stick to a Paleo lifestyle (like me!), I have some great news. I’d like to share with you ten of my favorite Paleo waffle recipes.
Out of respect for the authors of these recipes, I won’t share the entire recipe of their Paleo waffles here, just an image, a brief description, and a link to their website.
These ten recipes are in no particular order and are not the only Paleo waffle recipes that I enjoy. There are many more, these are just ten of the many Paleo waffle and pancake recipes that I love.
Before we get started – there’s a Paleo cookbook that many swear by.

This Paleohacks Breakfast Bible has changed the way that I make breakfast for my family. It has the best gluten-free waffles recipes I’ve ever tasted and has plenty of other gluten-free, dairy-free, and grain-free recipes.
Please browse through all of these sites and let me know how you enjoyed your Paleo waffles!
1. Bravo For Paleo
Bravo for Paleo has a really simple Gluten-Free/Paleo waffle recipe.
This recipe is gluten-free and grain-free. It’s an almond flour base so if you’re ok consuming almond flour, this might be the right recipe for you.
Personally, I’ve made it and it’s delicious. However, I don’t always react well to almonds so I usually stay away from almond flour. It also includes coconut milk, which I love because it makes it dairy-free.
They also have a video that walks you through preparing the recipe, making this as easy as possible. On top of all of that, their pictures are really creative, see below!
2. The Family That Heals Together
The Family That Heals Together has a really unique Paleo waffle recipe.
What makes it unique is that it features Cassava flour. Many people make use of almond flour or coconut flour, but you don’t often hear of Cassava flour being used.
This recipe is a winner and although Cassava flour can be difficult to find in a store, it’s easy to find online.
3. Do You Even Paleo
Ever heard of mashed potato paleo waffles, how about putting an Over Easy Egg on top of your Paleo Waffle? Welcome to Do You Even Paleo!
Actually, Do You Even Paleo has rebranded to Chelsea Eats. Because they’ve expanded into foods that aren’t just paleo but are gluten-free or grain-free.
These mashed potato waffles are pretty unique. And although some might argue that potatoes aren’t Paleo, they are a whole food and can be a great source of nutrients and energy. Still, these are some of the best gluten-free waffles you’ll ever taste!
4. Low Carb Yum
Low Carb Yum never disappoints with the quality of their recipes. And not only their recipes themselves, but also with images and the information provided.
Your waffle iron will love you for this recipe and for the instructions in how to accurately follow it!
This recipe uses coconut flour and baking powder to make delicious gluten-free waffles that
Are you eating Paleo and also tracking your macros? Not a problem, Low Carb Yum lists all macronutrients in her recipes! There’s no easier way to stay healthy than to follow Low Carb Yum’s recipes.
5. Hold The Grain
Hold The Grain’s Paleo waffle recipe is actually for a sandwich, which is awesome!
What makes it really unique is that it uses plantain as its base. As usual, Hold The Grain keeps it simple and provides easy to follow instructions, even instructions on reheating the batter.
6. Paleo Newbie
Paleo Newbie has a really great Sweet Potato Paleo waffle recipe.
This recipe actually uses pumpkin pie spice, sweet potatoes, baking soda, and almond butter to produce some delicious waffles!
It’s easy to follow and gives you something to do with leftover Thanksgiving Sweet Potatoes.
7. Against All Grain
Against all Grain is one of the top Paleo blogs today. There are very few Paleo blogs that have more visitors or more social media followers than Against All Grain. There’s a reason for that. Against All Grain has easy-to-follow recipe instructions along with great pictures to match.
If you follow a paleo diet at all, then this website should be on your most visited list.
And not only are these instructions easy to follow, they produce some of the best waffles that will come out of your waffle maker.
In this post, they go over Gingerbread waffles. What’s most interesting to me is that they use a lot of different types of ingredients such as arrowroot flour, coconut flour, coconut milk or almond milk, molasses, almond butter, ground ginger, ground cloves, ground cinnamon, among others.
8. Our Paleo Life
Our Paleo Life has a really easy to follow Paleo waffle recipe. They’re known for keeping this simple (and Paleo).
They also use a combination of almond flour and tapioca flour as a base, and unsweetened almond milk as their liquid.
This combination will make for great tasting fluffy waffles that will bake easily and pop right out of your waffle iron.
9. Empowered Sustenance
Empowered Sustenance has an interesting Paleo but Egg free recipe.
Normally, Paleo friendly waffle recipes have eggs in them, but in this recipe, Megan developed it egg-free because her kids don’t eat eggs. Because of that, this is a great recipe to follow if your diet restricts you from eating eggs!
It uses cassava flour as its base, which I love. And interestingly, it also has apple cider vinegar as one of the ingredients.
10. Katalyst Health Blog
At Katalyst Health Blog, they feature a Paleo waffle recipe that has a total prep and cook time of only 20 minutes!
Paleo Waffle Maker and Paleo Waffles
If you love waffles then not only do you need a great waffle maker but you also need a way to prepare the batter necessary to make your waffles. If you’re on a dietary restriction like Paleo, Gluten Free, or Vegan, the only way you can still enjoy waffles is to make your own batter. With all of the great Paleo blogs nowadays, finding Paleo friendly waffle recipes is easier than ever. There’s not need to ever willingly consume mass made batters full of preservatives and chemicals.
