Gluten-Free Tuesday: Waffle Blt Recipe

• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 10 basil leaves, finely chopped
• 1 small clove garlic, minced or put through a garlic press
• freshly ground pepper and salt to taste
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 8 slices bacon, preferably smoked
• Large bunch baby lettuce leaves or several large Romaine leaves torn into small pieces
• 2 large tomatoes, thickly sliced
• 4 ounces (1 cup) white or brown rice flour
• 2 ounces (1/2 cup) cornstarch or tapioca starch
• 1.25 ounces (1/4 cup) sweet rice flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon rosemary, finely chopped
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
• 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 1/4 cups milk
• 2 large eggs
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• non-stick cooking spray

1. Stir together mayonnaise, basil, and garlic in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside until ready to serve.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat until shimmering but not smoking. Add bacon. Cook until crisp, about five minutes per side. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate.
3. In medium mixing bowl, whisk together white rice flour, cornstarch, sweet rice flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, rosemary, salt, xanthan gum, and black pepper. In small bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, and oil until smooth.
4. Pour wet ingredients over dry ingredients. Using balloon whisk or handheld mixer, blend until batter is smooth. No lumps should remain.
5. Heat waffle iron according to manufacturer's directions. Spray iron generously with non-stick cooking spray. Spoon batter onto hot iron (amount of batter will vary depending on your iron) and bake until golden brown and crisp.
6. Remove waffles from iron. Break apart. Spread basil-garlic mayonnaise evenly over waffles. Top with lettuce, tomato and bacon slices. (You might need to break the bacon slices in half so they fit on the waffle.)
