Do you need a gluten-free diet and want tasty food? Try this sourdough waffle recipe. You will be surprise at the great taste, flavor, and texture of these gluten-free sourdough waffles.
In my search to find a tasty alternative to wheat flour items, I began to combine gluten-free flours to make a flour mix that is not just starches such as potato/tapioca starch. This one uses gluten/free whole grains which I use to feed the starter and it uses in the batter.
I do find that gluten-free sourdough starter is a little more watery than regular sourdough starter. I do have a limited amount of gluten-free starter available to purchase in my blog store. Yes, I do know that there could be a trace of gluten in my starter since I also bake with wheat flour for other family members. My son who is very sensitive to gluten can eat the gluten-free food I prepare since we are very careful with cross contamination.

This waffle iron was a gift from my daughter-in-law. I love it. It makes 4 waffles at a time.
These waffles are so tasty. I made my husband an egg sandwich and he never knew they were gluten-free.
