Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat your waffle iron.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free AP flour, gluten-free oat flour, buckwheat flour, ground pecans, xanthan gum, baking soda and salt.
  • In another large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, syrup, egg and vanilla, and mix until smooth.
  • Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and gradually incorporate the wet ingredients. Mix only until you have a smooth, even blend, with no dry spots. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Once your waffle iron is preheated (most have a light that goes off when it's ready), use some of the extra butter to grease the iron where you'll drop the batter. Use a tablespoon to drop about 1 tablespoon of batter onto the hot iron. I use a 1 ¼-inch cookie scoop for this and it's perfect. I can fit two on each side of my waffle iron, you might be able to fit more or less. The cookies will spread a lot, but if the edges meet, they should easily separate. Close the lid and open when your waffle maker indicates they're ready (again, usually a light goes off).
  • When they're done, open the lid and let them sit for about 30 seconds, and then use a rounded knife or small wooden spatula to very gently lift them off of the iron. (A non-stick waffle iron is the best for this recipe.)
  • As you remove the cookies, place them on a baking rack to cool them completely.

Notes

You can get oat flour here -- or -- you can make it by adding your oats to a food processor fitted with the blade attachment, and simply blending until it's a fine powder.
You can use a food processor or a spice grinder to to grind the pecans -- they should be as finely ground as possible.
