📖 Origin Lore

Birthed from roadside diners and motherly griddles, the American waffle was once a sugar-coated trap. AMERIGRID™ flips that legacy into legend — fortified flour, ancestral batter rituals, and toppings with purpose. This is the waffle re-coded for sovereignty.

🍽️ Ritual Recipe

  • Base: Sprouted oat flour + almond meal + pasture egg + ghee + adaptogen blend (maca, cordyceps, turmeric)
  • Syrup: Low-glycemic monkfruit maple syrup infusion + ginseng extract
  • Toppings: Coconut whip, fresh strawberries, omega seed crunch, cinnamon dust, micro mint
  • Boosters: Probiotic vanilla yogurt dollop, collagen sprinkle, activated sunflower butter smear

🧂 Ritual Preparation Instructions

  1. Preheat waffle iron with a swipe of coconut oil
  2. Whisk dry ingredients, then fold in wet until smooth and thick
  3. Pour into grid and close for 3–5 minutes until golden and crisp
  4. Plate hot, layer toppings artistically, drizzle with adaptogenic syrup
  5. Complete the ritual with deep breath and morning light
