Gluten-Free Huckleberry Waffles:
Nevertheless, I grew up in Idaho. Idaho is full of Huckleberry products. Indeed, almost every store sells some sort of Huckleberry product. Furthermore, many restaurants have an in-season of Huckleberry items. Needless to say, items include ice cream, muffins, pies, lemonades, milkshakes, sodas, etc. As a matter of fact, there are also Huckleberry candies and fudges.
Huckleberry Waffles is a Pacific Northwest American breakfast favorite.
Huckleberry Notes:
Huckleberries may look like blueberries but they are not. In fact, huckleberries have their own unique flavor and often grow wild in the Pacific Northwest of the USA. Indeed, these berries are more expensive than blueberries. As a matter of fact, Huckleberries are Native plants of the Pacific Northwest. They have long been used by Native Americans as medicine as well as a food source. In fact, they are full of antioxidants and are high in vitamin C. Not to mention they grow high in the mountains and reach their peak in August. Not to mention, Huckleberries are the state fruit in Idaho and Montana. Huckleberries also grow wild in Oregon, Washington, and Wyoming. Most importantly, be careful before picking. Make sure you know which berries are huckleberries and which are poisonous.
Nonetheless, Scientists and researchers have been unable to domesticate the Huckleberry. Almost all huckleberries are from the wild. Hence, a pound of fresh huckleberries can cost more than $65 a pound. The best place to find fresh huckleberries is at Farmer’s Markets. However, even then they may be frozen as they have a short shelf life. Indeed, many huckleberry bushes are found in National Parks.
