# Grain-Free Cauliflower Waffles Julian's Recipe Recreated a Breakfast Classic with Cauli-Wafels By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2021-05-21 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cauliflower-waffles References: [foodbusinessnews.net](https://www.foodbusinessnews.net/media/photos/4269-new-on-the-shelves) & [juliansrecipe](https://www.juliansrecipe.com/cauli-wafels) Julian's Recipe created cauliflower waffles as a better-for-you take on traditional breakfast waffles that are free from grains and gluten. The Cauli-Wafels are made with cauliflower as the first ingredient, plus other additions like cage-free eggs, tigernut flour, coconut flour, tapioca starch and fava bean protein. The nourishing waffles based on the [classic European Wafel recipe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vafels-stroopwafels) share five grams of protein per each two-waffle serving, which can be enjoyed in varieties like Original and Maple & Brown Butter. The brand also sells Cauli-Wafels [breakfast sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/incredifulls), which could be recreated with the regular Cauli-Wafels and a few additions. [Cauliflower](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caulitos), an ingredient that now forms the base for everything from pizza crusts to crackers, is now also being worked into baked goods with sweet flavors. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.3/10 - Popularity: 22% | Activity: 66% | Freshness: 10% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Cauliflower-based Foods:** The emergence of cauliflower-based foods beyond pizza crusts, crackers, and baked goods presents opportunities to develop innovative products using this versatile ingredient. - **Healthy Breakfast Alternatives:** There is a growing trend towards healthier breakfast alternatives like Julian's Recipe's Cauli-Wafels, which presents opportunities to develop new products in this space. - **Grain-free Foods:** The development of grain-free foods like Julian's Recipe's Cauli-Wafels presents an opportunity for companies to cater to consumers following specific diets and preferences. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Health Food Industry:** Julian's Recipe's Cauli-Wafels demonstrate the growth of the health food industry as consumers are increasingly interested in healthier food options. - **Gluten-free Industry:** The grain-free and gluten-free aspects of Julian's Recipe's Cauli-Wafels demonstrate opportunities for companies in the gluten-free industry to expand their product lines and offerings. - **Bakery Industry:** The expansion of cauliflower as a substitute for traditional baking ingredients presents an opportunity for the bakery industry to develop new products for health-conscious consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Homestyle Cassava Waffles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rootsy.md) - [Crispy Cheesy Waffles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheesy-waffle.md) - [Cauliflower Breakfast Cups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heat-and-eat-cups.md) - [Oat-Based Waffles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/joyffles.md) - [Grab-and-Go Protein Waffles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superfood-waffle.md) - [Chickpea-Based Frozen Waffles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/banza.md) - [Nutritious Miniature Waffles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miniature-waffles.md) - [Dry-Yogurt Based Waffles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dry-yogurt-based-waffle.md) - [Nourishing Protein Waffles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/protein-waffle.md)
