[Gluten-free, Dairy-free, FODMAP-friendly]
These chocolate-chip waffles are another delicious breakfast option for the family, and they are gluten-free, dairy-free, and FODMAP-friendly. They are super-simple to make, and they can be made ahead of time, frozen, and pulled out for a quick breakfast.
Hudson loves his breakfast waffles, but since he's gone gluten-free, the waffle options at the grocery store are slim to none. He's a super-picky eater too, and that makes finding a good-tasting option even more challenging. Ergo, these waffles were made with him in mind. He's had several regular, commercial-brand waffles over the course of his childhood, and he told me the other day that these were his favorite hands-down. Success! They honestly taste like a dessert more than a waffle. Lauren can eat these too because I've made them dairy-free and low-FODMAP.
I use my waffle maker to make these, and it makes about 10 good-sized waffles. They are large and thick enough that I usually give the kids half a waffle for breakfast. I put the waffle iron setting on low to medium, and they turn out a very light golden brown. You could probably brown them more, but since I put them in the freezer and pull them out and place them in the toaster-oven, I like to keep them light. Make sure you spray your waffle iron before pouring in the batter. I made the mistake of forgetting the other morning, and I couldn't get them out of the iron!
Chocolate Chip Waffles
Makes 10 waffles
Ingredients:
2 cups gluten measure-for-measure / 1-to-1 flour (we like Bob's Red Mill 1-to-1 gluten free flour)
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 eggs, beaten
1 3/4 cup non-dairy vanilla creamer
2 tsp sugar
Allergen-free mini chocolate chips (we like Enjoy Life mini morsels)
Instructions:
Heat a waffle iron on medium or medium / low, based on preference. Be sure to spray with oil spray right before pouring the batter.
Mix the dry ingredients together in a bowl.
Add the beaten eggs, vanilla creamer, and sugar to the mixture. It may be lumpy, and that is okay as long as there aren't big lumps.
Pour enough batter into waffle iron to barely cover the griddle. Cook for about 5 minutes or until golden brown.
Serve with your favorite topping or cool, place in freezer bag, and pull out for later.
