Gluten-free waffles
Listen to me friends ... these waffles are insanely good! As they are cooking on the waffle iron, the smell of vanilla and cinnamon permeate the air leaving your entire house smelling heavenly! Add a little fruit, some butter and syrup and you've got yourself a delicious and satisfying breakfast that your whole family will love.
Tips and Tricks for the Perfect Gluten-Free Waffles:
- This recipe calls for a gluten-free all purpose flour blend that's easy to make and store for future recipes. If you cook and bake gluten-free, it's well worth the time and effort to make it for yourself.
- I've used the following, easy to find, gluten-free flour blends with great success: •Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour
•Pamela's Products Gluten Free All Purpose Flour Blend •Pillsbury BEST Multi-Purpose Gluten-Free Flour Blend. - Cook the waffles for around 5 minutes. Once there is no longer steam coming from the waffle maker, the waffles are generally ready to remove. For a crispier crust, leave them a minute or two longer before removing.
- These waffles are good enough to eat plain, but are especially delicious topped with extras like berries, whipped cream, powdered sugar, jelly, syrup, chocolate ... the possibilities are endless!
- Gluten-Free Waffles can be frozen and reheated. Store in a freezer safe bag or container for up to 3-4 months. When ready to serve, let them thaw in the fridge and heat them in the oven on a baking sheet at 350 degrees for 10 minutes or until warm throughout, microwave for one minute or use a toaster oven.

Agreed these are the best GF waffles I have made. I didn’t have buttermilk so made them with 1 cup milk and 1/2 cup plain yogurt. Perfect.

My sister and I loved these! I subbed in coconut milk with 1 1/2 T apple cider vinegar for the buttermilk. Turned out amazing. Thanks for the recipe!!

Best gluten free waffles I have tried yet! And I've been making gf recipes for several years. Substituted 1/2 cup of applesauce for part of the buttermilk. Perfect texture and delicious!
Michelle says
These are delicious. I made them for my grandkids and they LOVED them. I did what another reviewer suggested. I added lemon juice to Almond milk in place of buttermilk to make them dairy free. They puff up beautifully.
Kathy says
My new go to waffle recipe! The were delicious, light and fluffy AND did NOT stick to the waffle iron! I had no buttermilk so I substituted 1 1/3 tbsp lemon juice + almond milk to measure 1 1/2 cups. Two of us ate the entire batch
