This crisp and fluffy einkorn waffle recipe is perfect for a hearty breakfast or a delightful brunch treat. These waffles are highly requested for birthday breakfasts around here.

This recipe can also be made with all purpose flour if you do not have einkorn flour. I prefer to use einkorn flour when I am not using sourdough due to its health benefits. Einkorn flour is the only non-hybridized wheat and its weaker gluten structure makes it easier to digest.

Ingredients

• 3 cups (360g) einkorn flour (sub all purpose flour)
• 1 tsp (6g) salt
• 2 tbs baking powder
• 2 tbs (30g) maple syrup (or raw honey)
• 1/2 cup (113g) melted butter (or coconut oil)
• 2 cups (480g) milk
• 3 eggs
• Optional: 2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Lightly grease it with cooking spray or a little melted butter to prevent sticking.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the einkorn flour, salt, and baking powder. Whisk these dry ingredients together until they are well blended.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter (or coconut oil), eggs, and vanilla extract. Ensure that the melted butter is slightly cooled so it doesn’t cook the eggs.
4. Create the Batter: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

1. Cook the Waffles: Pour the batter into the preheated waffle iron, using a ladle or measuring cup for consistent portion sizes. I use a 1/2 cup measuring cup for my 7 inch waffle iron. Cook according to your waffle iron’s instructions until the waffles are golden brown and crispy. This usually takes about 3-5 minutes per waffle. Keep an eye on the steam released from the waffle iron. Once it stops steaming a lot they are usually done.
2. Serve: Carefully remove the waffles and place them on a wire rack to keep them crispy while you cook the remaining batter. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh berries, powdered sugar, or whipped cream.
