Gluten-Free Waffles

Gluten-free waffles can be delicious AND fun! The key is using the right gluten-free flours and your choice of fun waffle iron shapes. We love our Snoopy waffle iron the best but the good ‘ol fashioned waffle iron makes amazing gluten-free waffles too! As I always say, get creative and have fun with your food 🙂

Pre-heat waffle irons while you mix up your batter.
