**Ingredients:**
– 1 1/2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
– 2 tablespoons sugar
– 2 teaspoons baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1 1/4 cups milk (dairy or dairy-free)
– 2 large eggs
– 1/3 cup melted butter or oil
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
**Instructions:**
1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, melted butter or oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
4. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions and lightly grease it with cooking spray or oil.
5. Ladle the batter onto the hot waffle iron, spreading it evenly. Close the lid and cook the waffles until golden and crispy, following the waffle iron’s cooking time recommendations.
6. Once cooked, carefully remove the waffles from the iron and place them on a wire rack to prevent them from becoming soggy.
7. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the waffle iron as needed.
8. Serve the gluten-free Belgian waffles warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh berries, maple syrup, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
These gluten-free Belgian waffles are a delightful treat that the whole family can enjoy. Feel free to customize them by adding chocolate chips, nuts, or cinnamon to the batter for extra flavor.
