These Chocolate Waffles with Strawberries are perfect for Sunday brunch, and your loved ones will surely agree! Made with wholesome ingredients, they are not only delicious but also healthy.
Well, I am really running late, because tomorrow is Valentine’s Day and I was planning to publish this recipe yesterday. However, my daughter asked me to go with her and my four years old twin grandsons skating, so obviously I dropped everything, lol. Oh, but I wasn’t skating, I was just helping them stand up since they are learning as you can imagine. We had lots of fun and they always bring me so much joy. I have to say, there is no better Valentine’s present for me than a day with my two little rascals.
However, these delicious CHOCOLATE WAFFLES can be a lovely addition to start your Valentine’s Day whether for your sweetheart or the whole family. They are the easiest yummy treat to make, besides they are full of healthy nutrients and refined sugar-free. The waffles themselves are actually totally sugar-free if you use Erythritol. The dark, 90% Lindt chocolate is very low in sugar, only 2 grams per 30 grams of chocolate. And yes, I know I added Maple syrup in the recipe, but if you are really concerned about that, you can use just melted dark chocolate with little bit of coconut milk.
On the other hand, for those of you who are ready to indulge, go ahead and add some VEGAN ICE CREAM! There is so much selection in the supermarkets nowadays; just follow this link and pick your favorite HERE! However, if this is not what you are looking for, you may take a look at my SMOOTHIES & BREAKFAST page and find your favorite there.
I wish you a Happy Valentine’s Day and if you have any questions or suggestions, I would love to hear from you.
