A straightforward recipe for making light and fluffy blueberry waffles using gluten-free flour, suitable for a satisfying breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend (with xanthan gum)
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s directions. Lightly grease the plates if necessary.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries. If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them first.
  6. Pour the batter onto the hot waffle iron, using the amount recommended for your specific iron to achieve the desired thickness.
  7. Cook until the steam stops escaping and the waffle is golden brown and crisp, typically 4 to 6 minutes.
  8. Carefully remove the waffle and serve immediately, or keep warm in a low oven (200°F) while you cook the remaining batter.

Notes

  • For crispier waffles, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
  • If your gluten-free flour blend does not contain xanthan gum, add 1 teaspoon of xanthan gum to the dry ingredients.
  • To make this recipe dairy-free, substitute the milk with almond or soy milk and use a dairy-free butter substitute.
  • If you prefer a lighter texture, substitute 1/4 cup of the flour with tapioca starch.
