It happens every time – this piece of paper enjoys playing hide-and-seek. So I’m documenting the recipe here, for my own benefit, really (you have no idea how many times I’ve had to print off the recipe for chocolate brownie from my own site).<\/p>\n
My preferred ready-made gluten free flour mix here in the UK is the Wellfoods version. No doubt you’ll have your own preferred blend – perhaps even specially for waffles – and I’d be really interested to know what blend you use for waffles. The problem I have is that although the waffles puff up nicely while hot, they deflate sadly once they start to cool. I’m sure the ones my mother used to make when I was small (using non-gluten-free flour and a proper heat-on-the-hob American waffle iron, imported by her from the days when we lived in America) didn’t do this.<\/p>\n
What am I doing wrong? <\/p>\n
I wonder if its the electric waffle iron, not the flour mix or the recipe?<\/p>\n
Recipe<\/strong><\/p>\n 6 oz plain flour Method<\/strong><\/p>\n Combine the dry ingredients.<\/p>\n Mix the egg yolks and milk, then add the melted butter. Beat well, and then add to the dry ingredients. Beat again.<\/p>\n Whisk the egg whites, and fold into the other ingredients.<\/p>\n Add dollops to the wafflemaker and cook until golden brown.<\/p>\n Eat with proper maple syrup (is there any other way?)<\/p>\n Yes, this makes a lot of washing-up. Definitely a weekend-only treat. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sorry: this isn’t it, but I know one of you out there has it … Once again, I spent 20 minutes scouring the kitchen to find the tiny scrap of paper that came with our waffle-maker 10 years ago, because coeliac daughter decided she fancied waffles this morning.
