Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine all wet ingredients. Whisk and set aside.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine all dry ingredients. Stir.
  3. Add dry ingredients to wet, and whisk until just combined. Then gently fold in blueberries. Set batter aside to rest for a few minutes while you warm your waffle iron.
  4. Preheat your waffle iron to desired setting. (I set mine medium to medium-high.)
  5. Once iron is hot, use a 1/2-cup measuring cup to scoop out batter and place in the middle of the hot waffle iron. (No need to overfill it - I find it cooks better when I don't push the batter all the way to the edge.)
  6. Close lid and cook waffle 6-8 minutes or until steam has completely stopped. (Try not to open the lid during cooking.)
  7. Then carefully remove waffle and continue process with the remaining batter.
  8. Top with fresh blueberries, lemon zest, maple syrup, or other desired toppings.

Notes

  • *Flour: I use Bob's Red Mill gluten-free all-purpose flour.
  • **Nut-free version: Omit the almond flour and all-purpose flour, and use 2 cups oat flour for your base. I find this results in denser (but still tasty!) waffles.
  • Waffle iron: My 7-inch round Belgian waffle iron is non-stick and doesn't require oil or spray. Be sure to lightly spray yours if your machine requires it.
  • Yield: Recipe makes about 6 Belgian waffles. It may be more or less depending on the size of your waffle maker.
  • Pancake option: The batter works well for pancakes too!
