Blueberry waffles are a delightful breakfast option that combines the light, crispy texture of waffles with the juicy sweetness of fresh blueberries. These waffles are perfect for weekend brunches or special breakfasts, offering a delicious mix of flavors in every bite. The fresh blueberries burst with natural sweetness, while the waffles remain fluffy inside and crispy on the outside. Top them with extra berries, a drizzle of maple syrup, and a dollop of whipped cream for a truly indulgent meal.
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups gluten-free all-purpose flour (or regular flour)
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 ¼ cups milk (or almond milk)
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup melted butter (or coconut oil)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- Cooking spray or extra butter for the waffle iron
- Maple syrup, for serving
- Extra blueberries, for topping
Instructions:
- Prepare the waffle batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
- Combine: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are fine. Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Heat the waffle iron: Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it with cooking spray or butter.
- Cook the waffles: Pour the batter into the preheated waffle iron, spreading it evenly. Cook according to the waffle iron’s instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes, until golden and crispy.
- Serve: Remove the waffles and serve immediately with extra blueberries and a drizzle of maple syrup.
Enjoy your fluffy, blueberry-packed waffles!
