Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup coconut milk (in a carton)
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • cup sweetened shredded coconut, plus ¼ cup for topping
  • Vanilla Coconut Glaze (recipe below)

Vanilla Coconut Glaze

  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 Tbsp coconut milk (in a carton)
  • ¾ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • In a medium bow, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a separate, larger bowl, whisk together buttermilk, coconut milk, eggs, and melted butter.
  • Pour dry mixture into wet mixture and stir until just combined, being careful not to over-mix. Fold in ⅓ cup coconut.
  • Heat waffle iron and spray lightly with cooking oil or brush with canola oil. Pour batter into waffle iron, close iron, and let cook for 3-5 minutes, until waffles are golden. If you’re not going to eat the waffles right away, place on a foil-covered baking sheet and place in a warmed oven.
  • Place remaining ¼ C coconut on a foil-lined baking tray and place in a toaster oven for a couple minutes, until nice and brown. Be sure to keep a close eye on it as the coconut could get dark quickly!
  • Serve waffles in a stack, drizzling glaze over the top and sprinkling on toasted coconut. 

Vanilla Coconut Glaze

  • Whisk together confectioners' sugar, coconut milk, and vanilla extract. If you'd like the glaze to be thicker, add some more sugar. If you'd like a thinner glaze, add more coconut milk.
