Tips to help you have the perfect Gluten Free Pumpkin Waffles
- If your waffles are sticking to your waffle iron, add another tablespoon of coconut oil.
- This can’t be said enough- don’t take out your waffles before the steam has stopped. I can guarantee you that you’ll end up making perfect waffles ! The steam is a lot more accurate than the waffle iron’s timer.
- When your waffles come out, the best way to keep them crispy is to spread them out separately on a cooling rack- don’t stack them, stacking them will make them wilt.
- Figure out how much batter is best for the size and density of the waffles you desire. Keep in mind, in my recipe it’s noted that ½ of a cup of batter is perfect for my waffle iron, yours may be different depending on the make and size of yours- so adjust accordingly.
