Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1.25 cups Buttermilk
- 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Red food coloring
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons Milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract (for glaze)
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar.
In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and red food coloring until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until smooth. Do not overmix.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with oil or cooking spray.
Pour enough batter into the preheated waffle iron to cover the grids, approximately 1/2 cup, but adjust based on your waffle iron size.
Close the waffle iron and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes or until the waffles are cooked through and have a slight crisp on the outside.
While the waffles are cooking, prepare the cream cheese glaze. In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese with the powdered sugar until smooth.
Add the milk and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture and blend until combined and creamy. Adjust the amount of milk for desired consistency.
Serve the hot waffles drizzled with the cream cheese glaze.
