Gluten Free Belgian Waffles

Waffles are my favorite. They?re so delicious- crispy on the outside and light on the inside. They?re so much better than pancakes?I apologize to any pancake fans I?m offending by saying this.

These gluten free waffles are perfectly traditional- no frills, just airy and delicious. They don?t need extracts or added flavors and serve as a delicious canvas for toppings wither extravagant or simple.

Gluten Free Belgian Waffles

Gluten free, Dairy free

Prep time: 20 minutes Cooking time: 10-20 minutes

Special equipment:

Ingredients

Directions

Whisk together the wet ingredients (egg, milk, sugar) in a small bowl.

Whisk together dry ingredients (flour, corn meal, rice flour, starch, salt, xanthen gum and baking powder) in a large bowl.

Add wet ingredients to dry and mix until lumps diminish, about 20 turns.

Why? without gluten the worry of over mixing is non existent so you can work with a nice, smooth batter!

Turn oven to 200* F.

Heat your waffle maker until it?s prepared to waffleinate**. Pour in 1/4 cup portions to each waffle mold and cook with manufacturers instructions. If desired, pour in about 3/4ths of your batter, add a handful of chocolate chips and top with more batter. Cook like the other waffles.

Top with strawberries, maple syrup, cinnamon, whipped cream or whatever else you want.

Tip: To keep waffles warm, store on baking sheets between moist tea towels in the oven.

*I used Bob?s Red Mill Gluten Free All Purpose Flour Blend.

**Yes. It?s a word.  

I urge you to try these! They?re so simple to make and none of my taste testers detected anything ?special? about them. Just pure delicious waffles!
