Inspired by my old time love affair with chicken pot pie and my always wandering eye when it comes to chicken and waffles, I created a recipe that combined the two into a delicious, more reasonable version of the classic.

TURMERIC WAFFLES INGREDIENTS

⅓ cup coconut milk or almond milk

3 tablespoons melted coconut oil, plus a bit extra for greasing

1 tablespoon 100% maple syrup (optional), plus extra for serving

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar

1¼ cup almond flour

1 tablespoon turmeric powder or 2 tablespoons freshly juiced turmeric

1 teaspoon baking soda

¼ teaspoon Himalayan pink salt

3 eggs

TURMERIC WAFFLES ASSEMBLY

1 | Use coconut oil to grease your waffle iron, preheating it while you prepare your batter.

2 | Place all the ingredients in a food processor or blender and mix until batter is formed.

3 | Pour into prepared waffle iron and cook for the recommended time.

*Yields about 6 waffles.

CHICKEN POT TOPPING ASSEMBLY
