Breakfast Waffles (Gluten-Free)
These waffles are surprisingly good for a gluten-free recipe. They are similar to the breakfast waffles made with wheat flour except the flour is replaced with Wheat-Free Baking Mix. They are simple and predictable to make. The batter can be made in about 15 minutes, so they are suitable as a last-minute addition to a breakfast. They are made fluffy by beating the egg whites separately and folding them in as the last step. The amount of milk is tailored to Red Mill Wheat Free Biscuit & Baking Mix" which is a blend of non-wheat flours and some gluten-free binders. You could use any Wheat-Free Baking Mix provided it is actually gluten-free (and not just wheat-free), but you might have to adjust the amount of milk to get the right consistency.
