  • Method: Waffle Iron
  • Cuisine: Gluten-Free, American

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend (with xanthan gum if possible)
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 3/4 cups milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 1/3 cup oil or melted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk eggs, milk, oil or melted butter, and vanilla until blended.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into dry and stir just until combined (batter will be slightly lumpy).
  5. Let batter rest a few minutes while your iron heats up.
  6. Pour batter into preheated waffle iron (amount depends on your iron). Close and cook until waffles are golden brown and crisp.
  7. Transfer cooked waffles to a wire rack or warm oven to keep crisp. Repeat with remaining batter.
  8. Serve warm with your favorite toppings—syrup, berries, whipped cream, or nut butter!

Notes

For extra crisp waffles, let them finish in a 200°F oven while you cook the rest. Gluten-free batter thickens as it sits—add a splash more milk if needed. Try add-ins like mini chocolate chips or orange zest for a brunch twist!
