Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk in the egg yolks until the mixture is smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix as this will result in dense waffles.
In a clean mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on high speed until they form stiff peaks.
Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the waffle batter, being careful to maintain as much air as possible.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray or a small amount of melted butter.
Pour about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of the batter into the center of the preheated waffle iron (amount may vary depending on your waffle iron size) and close the lid.
Cook the waffles for about 3-5 minutes or until they are golden brown and crisp. Adjust cook time based on waffle iron settings.
Remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve immediately with your favorite toppings like fresh fruit, maple syrup, or whipped cream.
