Gluten Free & Casein Free: Almond & Tapioca Flour Waffles



Preheat Waffle Iron

3 Cups almond flour
1/4 Cup tapioca flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp xanthum gum
1.5 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 Tbs melted almond butter
2 Tbs olive oil
1 Cup of water
1/8-1/5 tsp of cinnamon

Combine all ingredients, starting with dry working your way to went. Mix well. Batter will seem thicker than typical waffle mix and will form well on medium heat settings. Watching it for several minutes, longer than typical waffles as well. I like to take a fork and try to gently lift the sides, once it has cooked long enough it will be golden brown and will come out without a glitch!

Serve with pure maple syrup or agave nectar, enjoy!
