Waffles

In my quest to fuel a triathlete with candida, I have come up with a few successful gluten-free, sugar free creations. I am very excited about these waffles - they come out really nice and crisp. Of course, if you do not have candida, you can use agave, maple syrup, honey, or turbinado to sweeten to your preferred taste. This recipe makes about 2 1/2 waffles on a standard waffle maker, so you might need to double or triple depending on the crowd (or quadruple if you've got plans for an 8 hour day of training!)

Gluten-free waffles

1/4 cup buckwheat flour
1/2 cup millet flour
1/4 cup almond flour
2 T flax
1 T baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 T grapeseed oil (or oil of choice, hazelnut would be delicious!)
1 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
5-6 drops stevia, or 1-2 T sweetener of choice

Grind flax seed. Pour into medium mixing bowl along with all other dry ingredients. Stir to combine. Add liquid ingredients and stir until well combined. For a standard waffle machine, use 1/2 cup of batter for each waffle.
Serve warm with agave, maple syrup, fresh fruit, or yacon syrup.
I wish I could post a picture to tempt you with, but our camera is still MIA - I've noticed our blog is lacking in pictures to drool over lately, but hopefully our camera will reappear sometime soon!
