Gluten Free Raspberry Vanilla Waffle Donuts


Gluten Free Raspberry Vanilla Waffle Donuts have great flavour and texture. They are the perfect mix of sweet dessert and delicious breakfast. These donuts can be topped with your favourite donut toppings or enjoyed as a traditional waffle. They are the perfect size for dipping in syrup or jam! Raspberry Vanilla Waffle Donuts are the perfect treat for any occasion and will not disappoint!


Happy National Donut Day!




I always forget about the days devoted to my favourite indulgences until I wake up and scroll through my Instagram feed! Sometimes I get instantly excited and run out to get whatever that day is devoted to, and other times I forget about it just as quickly as I was reminded of it! Donuts are one of the biggest things I miss since being diagnosed with Celiacs. Road trips are not the same without a box of tim bits, and holidays are not the same without Grandmas homemade, deep fried donuts. I have made a few different types of donuts in the past. But today, I decided to make a fusion donut with my favourite breakfast food! Lately I have been craving waffles and pancakes, I think because I really love the syrup that I excessively cover them in. So why not make waffles into donuts and indulge? I like to believe that this makes it acceptable to have donuts for every meal of the day. Thats what donut day is about right?


Raspberry Vanilla Waffle Donuts are thicker than a waffle, and flatter than a donut. But they still have great flavour and texture! They can be topped with your favourite donut toppings, or enjoyed as a traditional waffle with fruit and syrup! They are great for dipping and are a delicious treat. These donuts are easy to make, and even easier to eat! They remain a little chewy when cooked. This reminded me of a honey crueller, which in my opinion is the best kind of donut! If this isn't for you, leave the donuts in the waffle press for a bit longer.
