You can use a waffle maker for these Chocolate Coconut Waffles if you have one.
We like to add a boost of coconut flavour in these Chocolate Coconut Waffles by adding some almond extract.
Our sweetener of choice is Sukrin 1 which is a natural, granulated sweetener (just like sugar) that has none of that horrible, artificial taste.
That being said, you don’t have to use Sukrin – there are lots of other high quality, granulated sweeteners available from the supermarket including Canderel Sugarly and Natvia.
If you’re using powdered sweetener, then please check how it compares to sugar. In some cases, you’ll need to use less, as powdered sweeteners can weigh less.

You should cook these Chocolate Coconut Waffles for 15-20 minutes or until the waffles are firm to the touch.

- Freeze it as soon as it is cold enough.
- Use a container or bag that is suitable for freezing.
Don’t forget to add a label with what it is, and on what date you put it in the freezer!
How do I reheat these Chocolate Coconut Waffles?
Place the waffles on a baking tray and cook in an oven set to 170ºC for 10-15 minutes until hot – just keep an eye on them to ensure they don’t burn.
You could reheat these in the microwave for 5-6 minutes until piping hot. They probably won’t be as crispy this way.

Can you keep mixture in fridge prior to cooking
KateTuesday 11th July 2017
Hi Cat
You could probably keep it overnight to save some time in the morning. Make sure to give it a good stir before you use it though
DebbieTuesday 14th February 2017
Please could you tell me if it is possible to batch cook these and then freeze them? If so how long will they keep in the freezer? If they can’t be kept in the freezer, how long would they keep in the fridge.
Many thanks 🙂

Hi Debbie
I don’t see why they wouldn’t freeze, although we’ve not tried. We’ve kept them for about 3 days without any problems
