The aroma was heaven. Comforting and a little sweet as I entered my friend’s place. I was ushered inside and was unexpectedly greeted with a piping hot waffle, topped with berries, butter and a touch of maple syrup. I could get used to this kind of treatment real fast!
This lil sweet grain and gluten free waffle recipe is from my dear friend Trisha who can often be found in her kitchen experimenting and adapting various recipes, including mine!
