There’s something special about waking up on Saturday and eating a large stack of waffles. The smell brings everyone running to the kitchen, and it’s a nice treat to kick off the weekend.
If you’re looking for soft gluten-free (and guilt-free!) waffles, then these are sure to hit the spot. There’s natural sweetness from the banana, and protein from the cottage cheese. A drizzle of almond butter and sliced bananas put these waffles over the top!

Notes
* I highly recommend using a scale to measure coconut oil. This will be more accurate and ensure that your waffles aren’t too dry.
- I used a mini waffle iron, so it made 8 small waffles (2 waffles per serving).
- If you don’t own a waffle iron, these can be cooking on the stove as pancakes.
