Gluten-Free Raspberry Coconut Waffles

GLUTEN-FREE RASPBERRY COCONUT WAFFLES-2

Going on a gluten-free and dairy-free diet doesn’t mean you need to give up your favorite foods, you just need to switch out the ingredients you are using! This gluten-free waffle recipe is easy enough to make as long as you have a few basic ingredients on hand. 

Try making a double batch on the weekend and freeze the extras to have on hand for quick breakfasts during the week. Children can use a toaster oven to reheat frozen waffles for breakfasts or after-school snacks. 

If you are just starting a gluten-free diet, I suggest grabbing a few gallon glass jars and using them to store some staple gluten-free flours. I always have brown rice flour (or sprouted brown rice flour), tapioca flour, teff, flour, coconut flour, and blanched almond flour on hand. Use these flours to bake nourishing gluten-free and grain-free treats. I have plenty of recipes on this website to get you started, as well as hundreds of recipes in my books

Because I know this question will get asked, I use a ceramic-coated waffle maker. These are far less-toxic than the traditional non-stick coated waffle makers. 

This waffle recipe can be used if you are following a Low-FODMAP Diet, just be mindful of the alternate suggestions for adding different fruits (apples and bananas). Blueberries are ok for the Low-FOMAP diet in smaller amounts. If you are following a Low-Histamine Diet, replace the raspberries with fresh or frozen blueberries or diced Granny Smith apples.

High-Protein Breakfast Ideas for All-Day Energy

Starting your day with enough protein is one of the simplest ways to transform your energy, focus, and mood. When breakfast is mostly carbs (toast, cereal, fruit juice), blood sugar rises quickly and then crashes mid-morning, leaving you tired, foggy, and craving sugar or caffeine. Instead, beginning your day with protein, healthy fats, and fiber slows digestion, keeps blood sugar balanced, and supports a healthy cortisol rhythm—helping you avoid the blood sugar roller coaster that drains your energy. Protein in the morning also provides the amino acids needed to make neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and GABA, which support focus, mood, and calm energy.

Start Your Day with a High-Protein and High-Fiber Meal

If you could make one dietary change to set yourself onto a new trajectory of health, it would be to consume a nutrient dense breakfast consisting of high-quality protein, fiber, and healthy fats. A nutrient-dense, high-protein and fiber-rich breakfast will help you curb cravings for foods you are working to stay away from, boost your metabolism, balance your blood sugar, help regulate your circadian rhythms, keep your mind sharp during the day, and increase satiety. Setting achievable goals that you can build upon sets you up for the most success as it gives your body and brain time to rewire. Dietary change quite literally creates new biochemistry in your body that takes time to get used to.

High-Fiber Wild Blueberry Flax Muffins (gluten-free, dairy-free)

Flaxseeds are a powerhouse of nutrients and fiber that help feed your beneficial gut microbes, reduce inflammation, regulate your digestive system, improve cardiovascular health, and help normalize blood sugar levels. This healthy muffin recipe uses 1 ½ cups of flaxseed meal, in addition to a small amount of oat flour and a cup of wild blueberries to pack in the nutrients! The soluble fiber found in plant-based foods is essential for increasing gut health and longevity. Serve muffins for breakfast with a cup of tea and hard boiled eggs, or pack a muffin in your child's lunchbox.

Asparagus, Leek, and Mushroom Frittata

Frittatas are just about one of the easiest, nutrient-dense meals you can make....and they can be whipped up in minutes! Serve a frittata for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I frequently make frittatas to use up the odd bits of leftovers or random veggies in the fridge. I love using leftover salmon and roasted potatoes in a frittata. Green onions, chives, sausages, red bell peppers, yellow or red onions, olives, zucchini, basil, and broccoli are also wonderful ingredients to add to your frittata!
