How'd it Taste?

These were DELICIOUS! I didn't even realize they were gluten free, but now I want to recommend this recipe to my gluten-free friends. The flavor was delightful. I added a bit of cinnamon to the batter because I wanted to enhance the flavor, but even without it I really enjoy the taste that teff flour provides. I don't have a waffle iron, so I just made pancakes, but they turned out just fine! Not as fluffy as a box mix, but perhaps I could experiment with adding a bit of milk to the batter and lessening the apple juice. Either way, this is getting added to my staple recipes!
