Waffle Recipe

This Waffle/pancake Recipe is basically what I eat every morning. I make it all at once, and keep the batter in the fridge. I've also cooked it up as pancakes and then used the pancakes like bread (maybe that's weird but it works if I want a quick sandwich) 

2 cups brown rice flour

2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

2 eggs

1 tsp vanilla

1/2 cup orange juice 

1-2 cups of water

1/2 cup ground flaxseed 

I mix all the ingredients together and then let it sit for a few minutes (that's why there's a variation in amount of water). If it's too thick then your waffles will be very dense! The next day I often have to add more water once it's been sitting in the fridge, this is normal. 

Orange juice is one of the more important ingredients because the citrus helps to soften the brown rice element. I've made them before without the orange juice and they're not very good. 

I usually add in a dash of cinnamon

Variations: If you're cooking these up all at once (like for a few people at breakfast) separate the eggs and whip the egg whites until soft peaks form and then fold them into the rest of the batter. 

For citrus waffles add grated zest of 1 lemon, 1 lime and 1 orange.

You can also use milk, or add a cup of yogurt, or add 3 Tbs melted butter. I don't just because I don't tolerate dairy very well.

For super soft waffles add 1/2 cup ground chia seeds (you can find these at whole foods) I just discovered that this makes the waffles extremely soft. Seriously, very soft waffles with a great texture.

INGREDIENTS:
2 cups fresh, frozen or canned peaches
1-2 tsp lemon juice (optional)
3 Tbsp coconut oil
1/2 tsp almond extract
dash of cinnamon (optional)
3/4 cups sugar
2/3 cup rice flour
1/3 cup tapioca flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup rice milk
1 tsp xanthan gum

DIRECTIONS:

Put fruit in 2 1/2 quart dish. Drip lemon juice over, if desired.
Make batter: Cream together melted oil and sugar then add almond
extract. Add milk, then rice flour, tapioca flour, xanthan gum and
baking powder. Mix well and spread over fruit. This will be thick. (You can always sprinkle a little brown sugar on top to help with caramelization. )

Bake at 350 degrees F for about 30-40 minutes. I bake until it starts to
look carmelized on top, which gives a bit of a crunch to go with the chewy middle) Serve warm with frozen treat of your choice. I personally like it served up with a little bit of rice milk if I don't have any dairy free ice cream on hand. My husband tells me it's delicious with vanilla ice cream.
