Ingredients
  

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour with xanthan gum
  • 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum (omit if flour blend already contains it)
  • 4 teaspoons gluten-free baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cup milk (or unsweetened almond milk for dairy-free)

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil until smooth.
  • Add the gluten-free flour, xanthan gum (if needed), baking powder, and salt to the bowl. Stir until the dry ingredients are fully incorporated.
  • Pour in the milk and mix until the batter is smooth and lump-free. The consistency should be pourable but thick.
  • Preheat your waffle maker and lightly grease it with oil or non-stick spray. Using a ladle or ice cream scoop, pour the batter onto the center of the waffle iron.
  • Cook according to your waffle maker’s instructions or until the waffles are golden brown and slightly crispy.
  • Serve warm with your favorite toppings like butter, pure maple syrup, or fresh fruit. Enjoy!
