Preheat the air fryer to 375°F and lightly coat a mini waffle maker with avocado oil.
Slice the chicken breast into thick strips and season lightly with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
In a small shallow bowl, whisk together the egg and buttermilk until well combined.
In a separate bowl, mix the almond flour, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and baking powder.
Reserve two tablespoons of the dry flour mixture in a small cup to use for the waffle batter later.
Dip each chicken strip into the egg wash, then dredge in the remaining flour mixture until thoroughly coated.
Place the chicken in the air fryer basket and cook for 10-12 minutes until the exterior is golden and crunchy.
Stir the reserved flour into the remaining egg wash to create a thick batter, adding a teaspoon of water if needed.
Pour the batter into the preheated waffle maker and cook for 3-5 minutes until firm and lightly browned.
Plate the waffle, top with the crispy air-fried chicken, and finish with a drizzle of raw honey.
