These waffles are DELICIOUS. The original recipe comes from Bob’s Red Mill website. I only slightly altered the recipe to fit my preferences and they turned out absolutely amazing! I saved these bad boys to share with you just before Mother’s Day because I think they are perfect for the occasion.
These gluten-free waffles also happen to be CHOCOLATE. I can’t think of a better way to wake up Mom on a Sunday morning than with a hot plate of chocolate waffles covered in fresh berries and a little maple syrup.
After the recipe I’ve also put together some great Mother’s Day gift ideas for those of you still trying to figure out the perfect way to express appreciation to your mom.
