Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to a warm setting at 200°F (95°C).
  2. Power up your waffle maker and set it to the desired temperature.
  3. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the unsweetened dairy-free milk, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, ground flax seed, and sweet potato puree. Whisk the ingredients together until fully combined, then let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, and salt.
  5. Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or spoon until just combined.
  6. Carefully pour the appropriate amount into your preheated waffle maker, following the manufacturer's instructions. Cook until golden brown, usually between 5 to 7 minutes.
  7. As each batch finishes, transfer them to the preheated oven to keep warm and crisp. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.
