I love waffles and going gluten free made me love them more; rice flour gives them a fabulous crispiness. Since going grain free I’ve been experimenting with almond flour waffles. Today I finally came up with a recipe that had the perfect amount of crispiness that wasn’t too soft or too eggy. I’m not sure how they will be without the hazelnut flour but I expect I’ll find out fairly soon. This recipe makes exactly two waffles in my waffle iron.
1/2 cup almond meal
1/2 cup hazelnut meal
1/4 cup water
1 egg
2 Tbs grapeseed oil
1 Tbs honey
1 tsp baking soda
Preheat waffle iron. In a small bowl combine the dry ingredients and whisk together. Form a well in the center of the bowl and pour the water, egg, oil, and honey into it. Whisk together the wet ingredients, slowly incorporating the dry ingredients until everything is well combined. Spray waffle iron with cooking spray and pour half the batter onto the iron. Cook according to your waffle iron’s directions. Serve with with your favorite syrup, honey or fruit.
