Wishing you could have dessert for breakfast? With these Red Velvet Waffles, you can. These are no ordinary red velvet waffles. Instead, these gluten-free waffles are much lower in sugar than waffles made with traditional sweeteners. The red velvet waffles are made with rice flour, almond flour, coconut flour, and sugar-free sweetener, which brings the sugar count to 8 grams making this dish an excellent choice for people with diabetes. The waffles are also topped with sugar-free whipped cream, so the only thing you need to complete the word is a drizzle of sugar-free maple syrup.

What does a red velvet waffle taste like?
Red velvet waffles taste like a lighter version of red velvet cake. You can expect a rich buttery vanilla flavor with a subtle chocolate flavor.
Why are my waffles not light and fluffy?
There are multiple reasons why your waffles may not be light and fluffy. First, the leaving agents you used may not be active. The waffle batter can also have too much moisture resulting in a soggy, soft waffle.
Should you let waffle batter rest?
Technically you can let the waffle batter rest, but it depends on your preference. Some people let waffle batter rest for 30-40 minutes while they prepare the toppings. Others make waffle batter a day in advance or the night before and store it in the fridge. Others cook the waffles right away, so it all comes down to your preference.
Should waffle mix be thick or runny?
Waffle batter should not be too thick or too runny. Waffle batter should have a texture similar to honey when poured.
