GF/DF Belgian Waffles

A relatively simple Belgian waffle recipe that is Dairy and Gluten free and makes 4 waffles. Most of the other GF waffles I've tried are too dense or lack structure and flavour. This yeasted variety is closer to an authentic Belgian and comes out light and crispy but holds up well with caramelized apples or a berry compote topped with coconut whipped cream.
