Ingredients
  

For the Waffles

  • ¾ c millet flour
  • ¾ c sweet white rice flour finely ground
  • ½ c potato starch
  • ½ c tapioca starch
  • ½ teaspoon xanthan gum
  • ¼ c sugar
  • 3 t. baking powder
  • 1 t. baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ t. salt
  • 3 large eggs separated
  • 2 c. egg nog
  • ⅓ c. butter or coconut oil melted and slightly cooled
  • 2 t. vanilla

For the Compote

  • 12 ounces fresh cranberries
  • ¾ c sugar
  • ¼ c apple juice
  • ¼ c water
  • ¼ c bourbon

For the topping

  • 1 ½ c Heavy Cream
  • ⅓ c powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg

Instructions
 

Make the cranberry compote:

  • Combine all the compote ingredients in a sauce pan over medium heat and simmer on low 15- 20 min. Keep warm until ready to serve.

Make the waffles:

  • Preheat waffle maker and prep with oil. I prefer using coconut oil.
  • In a bowl combine the dry ingredients (flour through the salt) and whisk well.
  • In a small bowl whisk the egg yolks, vanilla and egg nog and whisk. Slowly add in the melted butter ( or coconut oil) and mix. Add this to the flour mixture and mix well.
  • Beat the egg whites to medium-stiff peaks. Fold into the batter until only a few white streaks remain.
  • Scoop about ⅓ cup batter for each waffle and cook according to waffle maker instructions.
  • Keep warm on a baking sheet in an oven on lowest temperature until ready to serve.

To make the topping

  • Combine the heavy cream, powdered sugar and vanilla and whip until stiff peaks form. Keep chilled

Notes

The bourbon in the sauce is optional. Omit to make the recipe 100% Gluten Free
To make with regular flour just substitute 2 ½ cups of all purpose flour for the flours and starches and omit the xanthan gum
You can sub buttermilk, almond milk or coconut milk for the eggnog if eggnog isn't your thing
