# What You'll Need:
→ Dry Ingredients
01 - 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour
02 - 2 tbsp coconut sugar or light brown sugar
03 - 2 tsp baking powder
04 - ½ tsp baking soda
05 - ½ tsp sea salt
06 - 1 ½ tsp ground turmeric
07 - ½ tsp ground ginger
08 - ½ tsp ground cinnamon
09 - ¼ tsp ground black pepper
10 - ¼ tsp ground cardamom
→ Wet Ingredients
11 - 1 ¼ cups unsweetened almond milk
12 - 2 large eggs
13 - ¼ cup melted coconut oil
14 - 1 tsp vanilla extract
15 - Zest of 1 small orange
→ Optional Toppings
16 - Greek yogurt or coconut yogurt
17 - Fresh berries
18 - Sliced banana
19 - Honey or maple syrup
20 - Chopped nuts or seeds
# Directions:
01 - Preheat your waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions and lightly grease with coconut oil.
02 - In a large bowl, whisk together flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, black pepper, and cardamom until thoroughly blended.
03 - In a separate bowl, whisk together almond milk, eggs, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and orange zest until smooth and emulsified.
04 - Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; do not overmix. The batter should be thick but pourable—add a splash more milk if needed.
05 - Ladle the batter into the preheated waffle iron (about ½ to ¾ cup per waffle, depending on your iron). Cook according to your waffle iron's instructions, usually 4–5 minutes, until golden and crisp.
06 - Remove waffles and keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve hot, topped with yogurt, fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey or syrup, and nuts or seeds as desired.
