Gluten-Free Waffle Recipe
Everyone loves a good gluten-free waffle mix and I love a good gluten-free waffle recipe.
Don’t get me wrong, there are plenty of mixes to purchase (one of my favorites is gfjules gluten free pancake & waffle mix) but depending on your household gluten-free waffle consumption the mixes can get expensive.
I’ve been making this gluten free waffle recipe for years.
About a year ago I started making the dry portion in bulk and storing it in a glass container so that my sweet husband and girls could easily make gluten-free waffles when I was traveling.
I also have a gluten-free pancake mix recipe that they also make up whenever they are in the mood for gluten-free pancakes.
Gluten-Free Waffle Mix
Most gluten-free waffle mixes are simply the dry ingredients combined. You always have to add the wet ingredients like vanilla, milk, eggs, oil, etc.
By making it yourself you can keep as much or as little as you want on hand.
Also, it’s saves quite a bit of money if you are making gluten-free waffles every week.
We like to make up a couple batches of gluten-free waffles and keep them in the freezer for busy mornings.
My girls pull them out and re-heat them in the toaster for a delicious homemade breakfast.
Can I make gluten-free waffles dairy-free?
Yes. This gluten-free waffle mix recipe works with milk or dairy-free milk. We like to use vanilla almond milk when we make gluten-free waffles.
It gives it an extra touch of sweetness and vanilla.
How long can I store gluten-free waffle mix?
This gluten-free waffle mix can be stored in an airtight container (or glass container) for up to three months at room temperature.
It may stay fresh longer, but I wouldn’t know because we use it up pretty quickly. For store bought gluten-free waffle mixes, always check the expiration date printed on the box.
Can I use an egg substitute?
I haven’t personally tried an egg substitute in this recipe. This gluten-free waffle recipe calls for 2 eggs and the eggs are an important part of the recipe. Sorry!
Why are my gluten-free waffles sticking?
If your gluten-free waffles are sticking, this could be one of three things. First, if your waffle iron is non-stick, you should NOT spray it with cooking spray.
Spraying it could result in sticking.
Second, if your waffle iron is NON non-stick, you WILL need to spray it.
Last, if you don’t let the waffles cook until they’re done, they might come apart when you try to lift them out. That’s because the center isn’t finished cooking. Hope that helps.
Can I make gluten-free waffles sugar-free?
Yes, you can make gluten-free waffles sugar-free. Simply use honey or coconut sugar instead of granulated sugar.
I make my own mixes and my own flour blends. When I do, I personally like to store them in glass jars or containers.
I feel that they stay fresh longer, and they are a good storage option.
When I use ball pint mason jars I purchase the lids that have spots for the date on the lid. I write down when I made the mix or flour blend so I can keep track of how old it is.
You can store this mix in a glass jar, container, or a zip lock bag.
Just note that items stored in zip lock bags don’t last as long. Most mixes like this gluten-free waffle mix store really well in all of the above.
Easy Gluten-Free Waffles
After I posted my gluten-free pancake mix recipe people started emailing me asking for a waffle mix recipe that they can mix up and store.
I am super excited to finally get this post up for you, so that you can start whisking up your own gluten-free waffles.
With more and more people looking to save money on gluten-free mixes, I think this gluten-free waffle recipe is a great option for mixing up yourself.
What kind of a waffle iron should I use?
Honestly, it’s up to you. I used a small, two-waffle waffle iron for almond 2o years. It was one of those $10 ones you get at Walmart.
Just this last year a friend of mine gave me a round waffle iron. I love it just as much. If you have a waffle iron, just use that one.

I bought a new grill that came with waffle plates so I finally worked up the nerve to try making gluten free waffles thinking I would be happy if they were edible but these were actually amazing and so quick and easy and will now be a family fave.
chrystal
I am so glad you loved them. Thank you for letting me know.

Your recipe is perfect, as is. Sometimes I mix in a can of creamed corn. The waffles are hearty and the corn crisps up for a special treat. We will be serving them over the holidays. Thanks!
chrystal
Thank you for sharing.

Gluten Free and Vegan!
We have a lot of food allergies and sensitivities in our family and with a few modifications your recipe is perfect!!! Thank you.
1. I use Bob’s Red Mill GF flour (I find other GF flour blends stick too much).
2. Replace eggs with 1/2 cup of apple sauce.
3. No sugar needed because the apple sauce adds the sweetness.
4. Replace milk with unsweetened Almond milk.
chrystal
I am so glad you liked them. Thank you for sharing that you used applesauce in place of the eggs to make them vegan.

Great recipe. I made this version and then I adjusted the ingredients for a savory version. I omitted the sugar and vanilla, increased the salt to 1 tsp. and added sautéed mushrooms and onions with about a 1/4c parmesan. I served this with a garlic butter white wine sauce. But you can also serve it with a ranch dressing, sautéed greens and a fried egg.
Thanks!!
chrystal
Ooh, I love the idea of a savory version. So glad you loved them Thanks for sharing.

Hi Chrystal,
How is it possible that you can leave the batter out the fridge while you add fresh milk and eggs in it?
Cheers
chrystal
I’m not sure I understand your question. You mix the batter and cook it right away so there would be no problems.

Mix and Storage
Did not read it properly. You talking about the dry mix and not the compleet one.
Cheers
chrystal
Sorry for the confusion, Amerentia. You can mix just the dry mix part and store it in a glass container on a shelf or a cupboard. That way it’s already mostly mixed when you are ready to use it. You don’t have to do this. You can make it and cook it up.

Chrystal

I made these. I added some canned pumpkin (about 1/2 cup) and some cinnamon and maple syrup. I decreased the sugar and oil a little to compensate for the additions. They were delicious!
chrystal
Thanks for sharing! I love adding a touch of pumpkin.

Chrystal

hi, may i know if you have made it with your own gluten free flour blend? what is the recipe? I prefer self made to avoid xantham gum etc. thanks in advance
chrystal
Hi Kate,
You can use my gluten free flour blend to make these waffles. You don’t need to add xanthan.
Best,
Chrystal
kate
How much cinnamon do you add for the recipe? Is it possible to omit or substitude baking powder? I cant take baking powder soda or yeast etc.
chrystal
Hi Kate,
I haven’t tried it without baking powder yet. You can add 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, or more if you like.

I’ve tried so many gluten free waffle recipes and this one is perfect! So easy and delicious, thank you!!!
Meredith Whitehorn
Just got my waffle machine back after about 20 years from a friend who I lent it to and made your recipe. Wonderful. Have left over batter, didn’t want to be a pig, and hoping it will be just as nice tomorrow when I cook them up.
Allison
This is the best gluten free waffle recipe I’ve tried & I have tried a lot! Even my gluten tolerant family members loved them. I used King Arthur’s 1:1 flour. And added a teaspoon of cardamom. Delicious, thanks for the perfect recipe!
