Almond churros waffles bring the county-fair churro home — no deep fryer required. Almond flour waffles get dunked in melted coconut oil and rolled in coconut sugar while still hot. Crisp, sweet, cinnamon-less and completely gluten-free. Serve them warm, because that's when the magic happens.

Pro Tips

• Set up your dipping station before the waffles come out: melted coconut oil in one wide bowl, coconut sugar in another. The hot waffles need both immediately.
• Dunk the waffle in the oil first and let it soak briefly — the sugar only clings where the oil has been.
• Coat the waffles while they're still hot; once they cool, the coconut sugar won't stick and the crust falls flat.
• Mix the almond flour, baking soda and salt thoroughly (a quick blend is even better) so every waffle rises the same way.
• Serve them straight away — these are a warm, crisp treat that softens as they sit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why dip the waffles in oil before the sugar?

It's the classic churro technique — the oil soaks the surface so the coconut sugar sticks in a proper churro crust instead of sliding off.

Can I use melted butter for dipping?

Yes — the recipe's dipping step calls the fat 'melted butter', and butter works just as well as coconut oil if dairy is fine with you.

Are these waffles gluten-free?

Completely — almond flour replaces any grain flour, so the whole recipe is naturally gluten-free and grain-free.

Can I make the batter ahead?

It's best fresh, but the dry mix keeps well and the batter comes together in minutes. Cook and coat the waffles right before serving for the crispest churro crust.
