Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 3 large Egg whites
- 60 grams Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with a whisk until slightly foamy.
Add the granulated sugar to the egg whites and continue whisking until well combined and slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
Pour in the melted butter and vanilla extract, and whisk again until fully incorporated.
Sift together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, and salt in a separate bowl.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until a smooth, loose batter forms.
Spoon about a tablespoon of batter onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it into a thin circle about 4 inches (10 cm) in diameter. Repeat, spacing each circle about 2 inches (5 cm) apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges of the wafers are golden brown.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Working quickly while the wafers are still hot and pliable, use a spatula to lift each wafer and carefully roll it around the handle of a wooden spoon to form a cylinder. Be cautious as the wafers are hot.
Allow the rolled wafers to cool on a wire rack. They will harden as they cool, forming a crisp shell.
Once completely cool, store the wafer rolls in an airtight container for up to a week to maintain their crispness.
