-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 cup butternut squash -- frozen
1/2 cup milk -- canned coconut, or lowfat
2 egg yolks -- Note 1:
3 dates -- medjool
2 tablespoons extra virgin coconut oil
1/2 teaspoon ginger -- freshly grated

1/2 cup brown rice flour
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 cup water
4 egg whites
I'm always looking for creative ways to sneak more fruits and
vegetables into my recipes. This one for gluten free waffles with
hidden butternut squash is my new go-to breakfast favorite! I made
the waffles over the weekend and saved the batter in a mason jar,
which made Monday morning breakfast easy peasy.
They are healthy whole grain waffles that are light and crisp with
tender, chewy middles.
Note 1: look for pasture-raised organic eggs such as Vital Farms
Prep: 15 minutes
Cook: 5 minutes
Total: 20 minutes
To a high speed blender (such as a Vitamix), add the frozen butternut
squash, coconut milk, egg yolks, dates, coconut oil, ginger, tapioca
flour, millet flour, brown rice flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking
powder and water. Process on high until mixture is smooth and creamy.
Pour the mixture into a separate bowl and set batter aside.
Preheat the waffle iron.
Add the egg whites to the blender and process on high speed for one
full minute. Fold the egg whites into the batter and stir to combine.
Working in batches, add the batter to the waffle iron (amount needed
and cooking time will vary depending on machine). Cook until waffles
are lightly browned and set. Serve warm.
Question: I made this recipe a few days ago. The batter was very
runny and didn't cook well in my waffle maker. Could it be because I
used Native Forest new "Simple" coconut milk that doesn't include
guar gum? I used the full-fat "Simple", but it was like water falling
out of the can, much unlike the solid block with a hint of water that
you find with the standard (guar gum added) full-fat coconut milk. Thanks!!
Reply: Oh no! I am so glad you shared this because yes, that
absolutely must have been the problem. I didn't even know Native
Forest made "simple" coconut milk! That must be a new product? I am
sure the same would happen with coconut milk from the refrigerator
too (as that too is very runny). However, it is VERY good to know
that a "pure" coconut milk exists. Thank you for sharing! But I am so
sorry the recipe didn't work =( If you try it again though, try it
with Thai Kitchen brand Organic coconut milk - that's the one I use
all the time.
Review: These sound like a good gluten free waffles to try. I just
bought a waffle maker and have been looking at sweet ones to make,
but need them to be gluten free for my little boy.
