This is one of those posts that I made the recipe, took photos, edited everything, and then went to Paleo f(x) and forgot about the recipe. I rediscovered it in my post drafts and had to get it posted; these waffles are amazing!
These easy waffles are a great intro to cooking with plantains as well as water chestnut flour. Both ingredients work wonderfully in eggless cooking. These waffles are delicious topped with berries and lots of maple syrup!

I don’t have water Chestnut flour available in my country, do you think tapioca flour would work ok in its place? Thank you!
I don’t think so but you might be able to use plantain or banana flour.
hi, these look great, but the water chesnut flour you recommend is made in a facility that also process wheat. I have Celiac as well, does this flour bother you? Do you know of a completely gluten free brand of water chesnut flour? Thanks!
Hi Kris, I haven’t found that the flour bothers me; however it isn’t something that I eat every day and my recipes usually only use small amounts. I really like the texture that it adds to eggless baked goods. That said I’ll never tell someone to eat something they may react to, and I have a feeling that banana flour might make a good substitute. Wedo brand banana flour is a good brand.
Yum! I am really enjoying your Instagram and blog posts, Heather! Keep it up!!!!
