Gluten-Free Waffles

Absolutely delicious waffles!!  You are going to love them and you'll never know they are gluten-free!  You could easily make them dairy-free by using an egg substitute, coconut milk yogurt, almond milk (or another milk substitute) and dairy-free margarine.  I used vanilla coconut milk yogurt and almond milk, but we can have butter and eggs, so I used those instead of the substitutes.

Enjoy!

PS: This recipe comes from the Recipes for Gluten-Free Kids cookbook and also uses the Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour Blend from the same cookbook.  You will find it on my blog under "Gluten-Free Flour Blends", just make sure you match up the cookbook name and DO NOT use the one for breads!

GLUTEN-FREE WAFFLES

2 eggs
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup milk
1 cup Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour Blend (not for bread)
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter, melted

1)  Preheat waffle iron according to manufacturer's directions.

2)  Beat eggs in large bowl until light and fluffy.  Whisk in yogurt and milk.

3)  Combine flour blend, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in medium bowl.

4)  Gradually whisk yogurt mixture into flour mixture until smooth.  Whisk in melted butter.

5)  Add batter to waffle iron by 1/2 cupfuls for 6-inch waffles (or adjust amount depending on waffle iron).  Bake until crisp and browned.  Serve with butter and syrup.

6)  Refrigerate o freeze leftover waffles and reheat in toaster or toaster oven until crisp.

Makes 5 (6-inch) waffles

NOTES:

~I always spray my waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray to avoid sticking.

~You could alter this recipe to suit your taste by adding a little cinnamon to the batter, or adding some crushed pecans or walnuts.  That is one of my favorite ways to make waffles!
