Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat Waffles
Waffles are typically prepared in a waffle iron that’s considerably hot. It’s important to preheat it for at least 10 minutes or until the indicator light turns off.
For a deeper, crispier waffle use organic oil instead of butter in the batter. Overnight refrigeration with yeast instead of baking powder or soda produces a richer, crispier crust.

Another cool thing about HTB is it works with a variety of flours. I typically blend it with sorghum, almond, millet, and bean because it has a powerful taste.
And by the way, some folks add a little cornstarch to waffle batter for a flakier taste.
