Multi-Grain Gluten Free Sourdough Waffles
"Having recently gone gluten free I was sad about not having the ability to make sourdough waffles. I found a brown rice starter on line that I tweaked and then developed my waffles. Most of the recipes I found were high in starch and I wanted something with a little more fiber. These waffles freeze well and can be enjoyed later by placing frozen waffle in toaster oven and toasting until desired crispness. Hope you enjoy!"

Made this recipe as written (using your Rice Sourdough Starter recipe, of course) & was delighted with these very satisfying waffles! Just as a waffle should be, crispy on the outside & flavorful throughout! I had one topped with some sweet potato butter spread & another with pure maple syrup! Wonderful both ways! Even froze some, as you suggested, & expect them to be just a good! Thanks for sharing your recipes! [Made & reviewed in Newest Zaar recipe tag]

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called.
Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com.
Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net.
Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
