A sunny Monday morning brings to mind my waffle maker, and the 10+ pounds of strawberries in the freezer. This waffle variety is half rice flour, half buckwheat flour, all delicious. They turned out surprisingly light and airy, with a lot of grainy crunch. Under this mound of fresh strawberries, I barely needed a drizzle of maple syrup.
Homemade waffles or a mix? Sounds like a healthy version that I would love to try.
There were homemade, but very easy:
1/2 cup buckwheat flour
1/2 cup rice flour
1 tablespoon turbinado//raw sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
(mix dry ingredients)
1 cup buttermilk (or sub. milk w/ 1 tablespoon lemon juice)
1 egg
2 tablespoons canola oil
(mix wet ingredients)
add wet mixture to dry mixture, stir only until combined
let mixture sit for 5 minutes
make waffles!
~top with a little maple syrup and your favorite fruit~
(makes about 4 Belgian waffles, and they freeze well: great leftovers just pop in the toaster)
