Einkorn Ginger Waffles Recipe
These einkorn ginger waffles taste great! I love the tatse of ginger. This beginner-friendly batter is simple to make. Pre-made waffle mix cannot compare to making your own! It takes maybe five minutes to put together all your ingredients. These ginger einkorn waffles are filling, only needing to serve one or two to feel full.
I make my ginger einkorn waffles with a Texas-shaped waffle maker. To fill my waffle maker, it takes about 1/4 a cup or about 5 tablespoons. However, depending on your waffle maker, you may need more or less batter. Be careful to not overfill!
These waffles are an affordable and quick meal, the best of both worlds! I recommend topping with powdered sugar, honey, maple syrup, or jam.
Einkorn
I use einkorn more than any other ancient grain. It more exensive, but in my opinion it’s worth it. Waffles that are made with einkorn flour have great texture. There are more einkorn waffle recipes here. Einkorn is also a fantastic flour to use for pancakes too. You can find these einkorn pancake recipes here.
People with wheat sensitivities often check out einkorn due to it’s easier digestion abilities. I have gluten-sensitive people in my family. The gluten-sensitive members of my household tend to fare better consuming ancient grains such as einkorn, spelt, and rye. However, you should take caution and talk to a medical professional first if you react to gluten.
Buying in bulk can help you save big when buying einkorn for baking. Einkorn berries keep for a long time under ideal conditions. If you’re a frequent baker, you can save almost 80% per lb on bulk einkorn berries. Freshly mill when ready to use.
Einkorn can be used to replace any other light grain and vice-versa at a one-to-one ratio.
