Waffles

[Roda]

I sucessfully made waffles today! I had gotten rid of my waffle iron after I was diagnosed last year and I have not eaten any in over a year. My mom bought me a cuisinart waffle iron for Christmas and I thought, "I can do this." My first attempt about a week ago was a complete disaster. NASTY! I found a recipe online today that I thought I would try. I used a sorghum mix that I got from Purple. The only thing I did different was add a little bit of stevia extract powder, 2 TBSP of erythritol, and 2 tsp. xanthan gum. They were really good. My boys said they were "great, better than last time." The only trouble I had was over filling the iron and making a mess. Here is the link to the recipe:

FYI, the flour mix I used was 1 1/2 cups sorghum flour, 1 1/2 cups cornstarch, and 1 cup tapioca flour

Made waffles from the Tom Sawyer flour and a recipe off their website for Xmas morning and they were absolutely great! Not crumbly and very tender. I was also able to save a couple for the next day- popped them into the toaster and still great! Maybe try some.

I have used Tom Sawyer flour and it made great pancakes. Never made waffles, but I bet it would do well! Glad you liked them. I had also used Better Batter and it made horrible pancakes but great cakes. Otherwise I like my blend for every thing else. My non gluten free husband prefers the sorghum mix better because he does not like the grittiness of the rice based flour blends.

I am glad your waffles turned out! I used to hate waffles until I tried a gluten-free/vegan version and now that is the only recipe I make (only kids are gluten-free). I make them with berries for my dh and choc chip for me. Berries and choc chip for oldest dd and plain for youngest dd Try them with choc chips, whipped cream and a drizzle of choc syrup for a special day if you can have dairy. Mini chips work best.
