Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat Waffle Maker

    Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the Carolina Gold rice flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, mix the plant-based milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil until smooth.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.

  5. 5

    Cook Waffles

    Lightly grease the preheated waffle maker with non-stick spray or additional coconut oil. Pour the batter into the waffle maker, using about 1/2 cup for each waffle. Close the lid and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 5 minutes, until golden and crispy.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Carefully remove the waffles and serve warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, additional maple syrup, or nut butter.
