Gluten-Free Gingerbread Waffles what could be better on a cold winter’s day? YUM!! However, if you are like me you will adore these gingerbread waffles. Needless to say, this is my version of a Swedish Pepperkaka but in Waffle form. Indeed, these lofty buttermilk waffles will have your family desiring more. All in all, these Pepperkakor Waffles are the bomb. In conclusion, they are a little more mild version of German gingerbread. 
Gluten-Free Gingerbread Waffles:
Consequently, this has a wonderful sweet taste of cinnamon with a little ginger, clove, and cardamom in the background. Adding dairy-free buttermilk gives the waffles a slight tang and loftiness. Nevertheless, these buttermilk waffles are crispy on the outside and soft in the middle. What a wonderful and delicious way to begin your day full of warming spices and aromas that will bring the holiday to mind. Just add a small cup of coffee, and a couple of Maple Turkey Breakfast Sausages and you have a complete breakfast.
In all honesty, I highly suggest that you use unsweetened coconut milk, cassava flour, coconut nectar, cardamom spice, and even a heart-shaped Waffle Iron which can be found on Amazon. In fact, when you order waffles in Sweden they often come heart-shaped.
How To Make Gingerbread Waffles:
First and foremost begins with making dairy-free buttermilk. Once the buttermilk is made let it sit for 10 minutes to curdle the milk thereby making buttermilk. Next, separate the eggs. Beat the egg white to stiff peaks and set aside. Finally, combine the yolks, buttermilk, and cooled melted coconut oil. Finally, combine the dry ingredients. Next, combine the wet and dry. And lastly, fold in the egg whites until combined. Next, let sit for 1o minutes or more to give time for the rising ingredients (baking soda and baking powder) and the buttermilk to combine.
