Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Waffles (Dairy-Free)

These gluten-free chocolate chip waffles make for such a fun breakfast. I used Enjoy Life’s Mini Chips, and the mini chips work really well in the waffle maker. These would be great for a snack, too. I put a bit of syrup on mine, but they taste delicious without, too.

Instructions

Preheat the waffle maker and spray with non-stick spray if needed.

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Add in milk, eggs, and melted butter. Stir together until combined. The batter will be slightly lumpy.

Stir in the chocolate chips.

Measure out the amount needed for your waffle maker and pour this amount into the waffle maker.

Cook per your waffle maker’s directions.

Remove the waffle after cooking to a wire rack. This will help the bottom side not to get soggy.

To keep waffles warm: If making several batches to be eaten right away, place the waffles on a wire rack in the oven set at 200° to keep warm until they are all ready. To keep them crispy, do not stack the waffles.

Ingredient notes

Gluten-Free Flour: My favorite gluten-free & dairy-free flour blends to use are Pamela’s Gluten-Free 1:1 All-Purpose Flour and Better Batter Gluten-Free Flour. I’ve been using them both with great results. They are both a 1-1 substitute. If you use another gluten-free flour blend, be sure that it contains xanthan gum. If not, add 1/2 teaspoon of xanthan gum per cup of flour.

Dairy-Free Butter: Suggested brands are Country Crock Plant Based with Avocado Oil, Smart Balance, or Earth Balance.

Mini chocolate chips: Enjoy Life is dairy-free, and the mini size of these chips works perfectly with waffles.

Other ingredients: Sugar, baking powder, salt, eggs.

Storing

Refrigerate leftover waffles for 3-4 days.

To freeze: After completely cooling, layer the waffles with parchment paper between each one and place them in a freezer bag. Squeeze out as much air from the bags as possible before completely sealing. Waffles can be frozen for up to 3 months.

To reheat: You can reheat directly from the freezer or place frozen waffles in the refrigerator overnight to thaw. Depending on the thickness, these can be heated in a toaster on low for a few settings to get them heated thoroughly without burning. Or reheat in an air fryer or oven.
