Reviews
It is a little too wet, but I found that adding 1/4 cup more flour, switching to oil and increasing that to 1/4 cup helps fix that problem.
These are a sure favourite with our family – 3 days in a row for breakfast and still not enough. Great thanks. I made with gf flour and almond milk and coconut oil so gf and df .
the taste was great the texture reminded me of the sourdough waffles I made. Firm but not crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. For my tastes if the inside matched the outside texture wise it would probably taste burnt, glad I only cooked for 3-4 mins per waffle. Next time will add nuts and see how that turns out.
Good stuff. Made as is, but used unsweeted almond mylk.
Yummy
They were real good but didn’t get crisp, rather stayed soggy.
These are a new family favorite in my house! I made using gluten free all purpose flour and I forgot the lime but these are tasty without it. I had no texture issues, my waffles came out perfect.
1.14.17 Didn’t cook up as well as I hoped, little bit on the soggy side, maybe because of the moist sweet potato?? Don’t know, I followed the instructions to the letter, but I prefer a waffle with a lighter texture and a crisper exterior. But that’s not to say that we didn’t enjoy them, they were plenty tasty.
