Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2/3 C gluten free all purpose flour blend I use mine on this blog
  • 1/4 tsp xanthan gum
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 C granulated sugar
  • 1/4 C brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 C whole milk
  • 1/4 C unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 TBSP vanilla

Equipment

  • 1 waffle cone iron make sure you use a waffle cone iron- this is NOT a regular waffle iron
  • cone shape tool, bowl shape tool
  • medium bowl
  • spoons, measuring cups, measuring spoons, whisk, spatula
  • parchment paper

Method
 

  1. Preheat the waffle cone iron. Heat to medium or what temperature your iron specifies.
  2. In a medium bowl, pour gluten free flour, xanthan gum, sea salt, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix well with a wire whisk.
  3. Add eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla and whisk until ingredients are blended.
  4. Spray or lightly grease the iron before making your first waffle-repeat if necessary as you continue to cook more. Using a medium cookie scoop(about 2 TBSP), scoop the batter and pour in the center of the iron. Close the lid carefully. And let cook 2-3 minutes.
  5. When waffle is a medium brown color in the center, remove the waffle carefully with the cone shaped tool. Transfer to parchment paper and QUICKLY shape your cone. Make sure you pay attention to forming the bottom of your cone so there is not a hole at the bottom.
  6. Let the waffle cool in the cone tool for about 2 minutes while it’s resting on the parchment paper. Then remove the cone shape tool and let the waffle cone continue to cool on the parchment paper.
  7. Store completely cooled cones in an air-tight container for up to 5 days.

Notes

You can also use the bowl shape tool if yours comes with it and the cannoli shape tool(or like me just use a thicker wooden spoon handle).
