I highly recommend these amazing waffles to people who are not gluten intolerant. These waffles are as delicious as if they were baked with ‘real’ flour if not better! You can enjoy this gluten free recipe every Saturday morning!
You can use any gluten free flour for this recipe, just make sure that the quantities ad up. If you are using gluten free flour without any binding ingredients a teaspoon of xantam gum helps to hold the flours together. It works in the same way as a gluten does. This is particularly useful if your waffle irons are a little older and the batter sticks to it. If the batter is little firmer (by using the xantam gum) you’ll find the waffles come off easier.
I also find that I make a bigger batch than I need and then I freeze the waffles in multiple of two. This way, it takes next to no time to have my morning waffle fix, I just need to reach out for the freezer!
