Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1.25 cups Milk (or non-dairy alternative)
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 0.25 cup Melted unsalted butter (or coconut oil)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir the dry ingredients together until well blended.
In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, ensuring not to overmix. The batter should be slightly thick.
If desired, fold in the mini chocolate chips for extra decadence.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or a light brush of oil.
Pour the appropriate amount of batter onto the center of the preheated waffle iron, spreading it evenly. Close the lid and cook according to your waffle iron's instructions, typically around 4-5 minutes, until the waffles are crisp and cooked through.
Carefully remove the waffle and serve immediately. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Garnish with additional chocolate chips, whipped cream, or fresh berries for enhanced flavor.
