1 tbsp ground flaxseed
Ingredient note

3 tbsp water

For the batter

2 cups all-purpose flour
Chef's tip
Choose a gluten-free baking blend labeled 1:1 or cup-for-cup and use the same amount. Almond and coconut flour won't work the same way.
2 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
1 ¾ cups milk
Chef's tip
Lactose-free milk works 1:1 in cooking and baking and tastes slightly sweeter.
⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 tsp vanilla extract

For serving

maple syrup, for serving (optional)
fresh berries, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1

2
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and lightly grease the plates with cooking spray or a thin brush of melted butter.
