Nothing says it’s the freakin’ weekend quite like waffles. Ok, pancakes are up there. But waffles WAFFLES make me happy. I feel like I need more yummy breakfast recipes on the blog and so I have soo many brunch ideas swirling around in this pine nutty brain. Be prepared, you guys. Yummy things are happening…

You know when you’re sipping your coffee and you’re all like, “This is great and all but I kinda need an IV to pump some caffeine in my veins.” Maybe that’s unrealistic, no one in their right mind would put in a coffee IV, right?

I thought coffee waffles would be the next best thing. Well maybe a personal barista in my kitchen would be the next best thing, but you get it. A little jump to get you buzzing around like LET’S DO THIS.

Add the dry ingredients and mix to combine. Set aside for 5 – 10 minutes while the waffle iron heats up.
This is a vertical image looking at a white plate with a brown rim from a side angle. The plate has a brown colored waffle with a peanut butter drizzle and fresh sliced strawberries on top. The plate sits a folded white tea towel on a white surface with another plate with a waffle on it blurred in the foreground and a small white bowl blurred in the background. A hand is coming in from the right side of the image and is holding a small white pitcher with syrup in it and is drizzling the syrup on top of the waffles.
Cook until your waffle iron light goes off (or desired done-ness) and top with fresh berries, syrup, butter and/or nut butter!

How to make Coffee Bean Waffles:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, agave, and melted coconut oil. Add the almond flour, ground chia seeds, baking powder, and instant coffee. Whisk everything together and set in the fridge for about 10 minutes while your waffle iron heats up.

Brush the inside of your waffle iron with some melted coconut oil.

Place 1/4 – 1/3 cup of the batter onto the center of your waffle iron.

Close the iron and cook until your waffle iron light turns off. Gently remove from the iron with a fork. Repeat the process of greasing the waffle iron and cooking until all the batter is used.

If you use 1/4 cup batter per waffle, you’ll make 4 waffles. Top with your favorite nut or seed butter, fresh berries, and a chia seed sprinkle!!

Another white plate with a brown rim is to the bottom right corner of the image and it has another waffle with strawberry slices and a peanut butter drizzle on it.

A small white pitcher with syrup is to the top right corner with a small white bowl of sliced strawberries underneath it and a couple strawberries on the white surface.

    I can totally relate to the constant need for more coffee….I think this coffee IV thing needs to become a reality. In the meantime, I think these waffles will do the trick. 🙂 These are totally going to be my Sunday breakfast!
