Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2 cups gluten-free oat flour
1 cup blanched almond flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 cup heavy cream, warmed
½ cup water, or more if needed
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

Combine oat flour, almond flour, and baking powder in a large bowl.
Combine warmed cream, 1/2 cup water, eggs, melted butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a second bowl. Gently fold dry ingredients into the wet ingredients with a spatula; don't overmix. Let batter rest until oats absorb the liquid and batter thickens, 5 to 10 minutes. If batter becomes too thick, thin it out with a bit more water.
Preheat a waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions to medium-high temperature setting.
Pour about 1/4 cup batter onto the preheated waffle iron (amount depends on your waffle iron size). Cook until waffle is golden brown and the iron stops steaming, a little past ready for added crispiness, about 5 minutes.
Transfer waffle to a cooling rack to keep them crispy until serving. Repeat to cook remaining waffles.
