- 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 dairy-free)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- Cooking spray or oil for the iron
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s directions. Lightly grease the plates with spray or oil.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
- Gently fold in the blueberries. If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them first.
- Pour the batter onto the hot waffle iron, filling it according to its size and shape. Close the lid.
- Cook for 4 to 6 minutes, or until the steam stops escaping and the waffles are golden brown and crisp.
- Carefully remove the waffles and serve immediately with your preferred toppings.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, place cooked waffles on a wire rack set inside a baking sheet in a 200°F oven while you finish the remaining batter.
- If your gluten-free flour blend does not contain xanthan gum, add 1 teaspoon to the dry ingredients for better structure.
- To prevent the blueberries from sinking, lightly toss them with one teaspoon of the dry flour mixture before folding them into the batter.
- For dairy-free waffles, substitute the milk with almond or soy milk and use a vegan butter substitute.
