These gluten-free waffles are dairy-free and richly flavorful. The foundation is brown rice, coconut flour and a blend of almond milk and coconut. After cooking, drizzle waffles with maple syrup.

Almond-Orange Waffles

Lightly grease and preheat a regular or Belgian waffle baker according to manufacturer's directions.

In a large bowl, stir together flours, almonds, sugar, baking powder and baking soda; set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, almondmilk coconutmilk blend, orange zest and vanilla. Add all at once to the flour mixture; combine thoroughly.

Add batter to preheated waffle baker. Close lid quickly and bake according to manufacturer's directions until waffle is golden brown.

When done, use a fork to lift waffle off grid; keep warm on a wire rack in a 200-degree oven for up to 10 minutes. 

Repeat with remaining batter. If necessary, lightly coat waffle baker with oil between each waffle to prevent sticking. Serve warm with maple syrup.
