Mealthy tip:
These waffles freeze great. So feel free to make a large batch, freeze them, and just pop them in the toaster as needed! Xanthan gum is a great ingredient to have on hand for gluten-free baking. It is a powerful thickening agent and prevents ingredients from separating.

Anytime I can find a new GF recipe, it's a win for me! I had never cooked with buckwheat until now. Very delicious recipe! I especially love the strawberry jam swirled in the batter. Can't wait to make these again.
