Quick Buckwheat Waffles: Gluten-free



Strawberries are in season here in Oregon right now, and they are amazing on waffles.  This recipe for gluten-free buckwheat waffles is quick, easy, and of course delicious.

Quick Buckwheat Waffles Recipe

Blend together in a medium bowl:

1/2 cup buckwheat flour
1/2 cup white rice flour
2 Tbsp sorghum flour
1 Tbsp tapioca flour
1 Tbsp potato flour
3 Tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder



In another medium bowl, beat thoroughly:

2 large eggs

Add:


1 1/4 cup milk
2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted


Mix well, then add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and blend thoroughly.  Cook in a waffle iron.  Buckwheat waffles benefit from a slightly higher heat setting than other waffles.  Makes about four waffles.

I'm curious - no oil or shortening? I thought waffles always needed them. But maybe not? Yours look terrific!

Iris - Thanks! I hope you like the waffles!

Ellen - I used butter instead of oil or shortening on this one, but you can easily substitute that out for a dairy-free fat if you would like. Thanks for the compliments!

Sophie - I'm glad to hear that the gluten-free diet is helping you! That's great to get results within a few weeks. I lost weight when I first went on the diet but then I gained it back once I figured out new snack foods ;)

Let me know if you try making the buckwheat waffles recipe, and thanks for the comment!

I love buckwheat pancakes. I don't know why I never thought to put it in waffles. Yours look fabulous.

Made these today - just finished my plate, actually. I have other allergies, so I substituted the eggs (2TBS flax meal + 6TBS water, simmered), the butter (organic butter flavored vegetable shortening), the milk (equal amounts of So Delicious Brand Original flavor coconut milk coffee creamer and rice milk), potato flour (sweet potato flour - from barryfarms.com) and sugar (used brown sugar - it's all I had in the house). Topped with real maple syrup and fresh sliced strawberries. OMG!!! Tastes like the real thing! However, I only got 3 waffles out of it instead of 4 - but who cares! They're so good!! Thank you so much for posting this recipe! I haven't had real, homemade waffles in years because of my allergies! Thanks again!!

I'm going to eat these today too! I'm really glad you liked them. The substitutions you made sound pretty good. In fact, they sound a lot like my dairy-free waffle recipe. I haven't tried the flax substitute for eggs yet. I'll have to check that out. Thanks for the comment!

Thanks for the recipe! I, like others, made a couple substitutions (eggs & Bob's Redmill All Purpose Flour) but the end result was the best I've tried. And I think they'd pass the "kid test" too and that's important in our house. =)

Gluten-free Sourdough Discard Bread

Image
You’ve made your gluten free sourdough starter . What now?   The discard, or unused portion of the starter can be repurposed in a number of ways.  It’s the part of the starter that you don’t need to refresh or to use to leaven bread. You can throw it out, or you can use it to replace some of the flour and water in other recipes.  It adds a great texture and flavor to recipes, and it’s particularly useful for gluten free recipes. There’s something about gf grains that benefits immensely from the fermentation process. They become more flexible, more workable, and much tastier. In this bread recipe the sourdough starter lends the bread strength, flexibility, and flavor. Want a sandwich loaf recipe? Check out my  Yeasted Sourdough Sandwich Bread . Why is it not a regular sourdough bread?  This bread is considered a discard bread, or sometimes called a hybrid loaf, because it contains sourdough but it's leavened with commercial yeast. What does it taste like?   ...

Quick Yeasted Sourdough Sandwich Loaf Recipe

Readers have been asking if they can bake the Gluten-free Sourdough Discard Bread in a bread tin.  The answer seems to be yes, it usually works.  However, I've created this new recipe that is more of a sandwich style loaf.  This recipe is a single rise recipe, so it's quick and easy. Need to create a sourdough starter? This is the method I use most:  https://glutenfreegourmand.blogspot.com/2021/10/sourdough-starter-ready-to-use-in-3-7.html Why yeasted sourdough?  Sometimes it's tricky to get a great rise out of sourdough when you're first starting out.  Also, creating a new sourdough starter creates a bit of discard that can be used up in other recipes to improve the flavor and texture of the product. This recipe adds a little baker's yeast to help the rise and get the loaf in the oven more quickly.  This is a sourdough discard recipe but you can use active starter if that's what you have.  Yeasted Sourdough Sandwich Loaf Recipe Dairy-free, c ont...

Mild Country White Sourdough Bread

I gave up on producing a showy loaf a long time ago.  I always rolled my eyes a little when I saw photos online of perfect bloom or wide-open crumb.  "The mustard is going to just fall right through," I would think to my self disapprovingly, shaking my head a little. It turns out, I was just jealous. After a decade of gluten-free bread baking and recipe development, and through a collaboration with some other bakers, I've come up with a gf sourdough bread recipe that produces an open crumb, a large bloom, and sometimes, if I'm lucky, an ear.   The bread has a very mild, pleasant sourdough flavor and is very light in color. The crumb is very open but not too delicate.  It has a chewiness to the texture that I associate with a good sourdough bread.  The crust gets a nice browning and it toasts up nicely. And I don't mind the mustard falling through as much as I thought I would. Many thanks to Michael Hollesen who came up with the original version of this reci...
