Instructions
Cherry Compote
- In a small to medium saucepan, mix together the cherries, 4 teaspoons sweetener, and ¼ cup water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Stir and heat until most if not all of the cherries have burst (feel free to help them along by smashing them) and the mixture is hot and slightly thickened.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the almond extract and glucomannan (gluccie is optional and just thickens it up a bit more). Set aside.
Chocolate Syrup
- Mix together all of the chocolate syrup ingredients in a small saucepan.
- Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low. Allow to simmer for about 10 minutes or until slightly thickened.
Chocolate Waffles
- Preheat waffle iron.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, protein powder, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- Add the egg yolk, milk, vinegar, vanilla, and coffee granules or extract. Mix together until just moist.
- In a separate bowl, using an electric handheld mixer or a whisk, beat together the egg white and sweetener until soft peaks form.
- Carefully fold HALF of the egg white mixture into the waffle batter. Set the other half aside for use as a topping.
Assembly
- Cook waffles according to waffle iron directions (lightly spray iron with cooking spray), using ¼ of the mixture per waffle.
- Top with hot cherry compote, egg white meringue, and optional chocolate syrup.
Notes
- These can be made ahead and refrigerated for about 3 days or frozen for up to 6 months. When freezing, separate the waffles with parchment paper and put in a freezer safe zip bag or other airtight container. Remember to date it!
- If you don't have a waffle iron, these can be made into pancakes instead using a preheated, lightly greased skillet.
