This is a slight modification to Chocolate chip avocado waffles which includes almond flour. A delicious and healthy addition.
But, these healthyish avocado waffles are made with all - all purpose flour, since it is readily available in every home pantry.
All purpose flour tends to make any waffle a touch on the heavy side. So, I resorted to a tried and tested technique of whipping the egg whites separately and then folding into the batter.
Avocado and coconut oil for healthy fats and richness.
Chocolate chips are not optional. Because avocado and chocolate is made for each other!
