Buckwheat Waffles II
Do you like the idea of eating buckwheat but not the intensity of its flavor? Try out these crispy-on-the-outside-soft-on-the-inside, easy-peasy waffles. The tapioca flour helps neutralize the buckwheat-y flavor and creates a lighter texture than the Buckwheat Waffles I recipe.

This recipe can easily double as a pancake recipe. I recommend swapping the 2 tbsp of sugar for maple syrup if you go that route.
I recommend being precise with your fruit puree measurement. Any excess liquid will create a more dense texture.
If you don't have cream of tarter and baking soda, you can just add 1 tsp of baking powder. Baking powder is typically made with cornstarch so the resulting recipe would no longer be grain free/corn free.
The batter can be stored for 2-3 days in the fridge. If you plan to store the batter for later use, wait to add the baking soda until just before you actually cook the waffles.
