Gluten-Free Waffles
These gluten-free waffles are a comforting morning ritual, blending crispy edges with a soft interior, honoring the spirit of Sardinia.
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend (with xanthan gum)
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1.25 cups almond milk (or other plant-milk)
- ⅓ cup neutral-flavored oil (avocado, canola, or mild olive)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs or 2 flax-eggs (2 tbsp ground flax + 6 tbsp water) Use flax-eggs for vegan version.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease the plates.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk the almond milk, oil, vanilla and eggs (or flax-eggs).
- Pour wet into dry ingredients and stir until just combined — a few small lumps are okay.
- Let the batter rest for 5 minutes while the waffle iron heats fully.
- Scoop about ¼ cup batter per waffle into the iron, close, and cook until golden-brown and crisp (about 4–5 minutes).
- Remove waffle carefully, place on a wire rack; repeat with remaining batter.
- Serve your gluten-free waffles warm with toppings of your choice.
Notes
To avoid soggy waffles, ensure your waffle iron is hot before adding batter and place cooked waffles on a wire rack to cool.
