Gluten Free Belgian Waffles

by

Been missing the joy of waffles well miss out no more.

Gluten Free Belgian Waffles

Ingredients:

  • 1 3/4 cup Pamela’s Gluten Free Flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 2 eggs, separated
  • 1 3/4 cup of Vanilla Almond Milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
  1. Whip the egg whites in a bowl until stiff peaks form. I prefer to use a mixer to do this, but if you want a good arm workout use a whisk.
  2. In a separate bowl mix the flour, baking powder and salt together. Add the egg yolks, milk and vanilla and mix well to combine. Fold the whipped egg whites into the batter.
  3. Cook waffles per the waffle maker instructions.
  4. Note: you can keep them warm in a 200 degree oven while cooking all the batter.
  5. Make my baked fried chicken and you have “Chicken & Waffles” that are gluten free and tasty.
  6. I use Natures Hollow sugar free maple syrup (I have served it to guest and they have no idea it’s sugar free)
