Methods/steps
Waffle Batter:
2) Take a waffle maker and cover the bottom with plastic wrap.
3) Spoon in a bit of dough and spread it evenly with your hands, making sure it covers the entire waffle iron. Making sure not to pile it too thick or spread it too thin.
4) Lay a piece of plastic wrap across the top side of your waffle and press the 2 sides of the waffle iron together firmly to achieve a nice waffle pattern on both sides. Using the plastic wrap, lift the waffle out of the waffle iron and lay bottom side up on a dehydrator tray. Trim off any unclean edges with a butter knife.
5) Dehydrate for 8 hours at 110 degrees.
6) Pull waffles out and top them as you please- fruit, chocolate sauce, caramel sauce (instructions below), wild jungle peanut butter or a combination.
Caramel Sauce Topping:
1) Blend ingredients until smooth
Dark Dipping Chocolate (chocolate sauce):
1) Using a low heat source, melt the cacao butter, preferably in a glass bowl. At the same time, place your sweetener in a dish and heat that up as well. I prefer to use my dehydrator for this.
2) Sift all powders in the melted cacao butter (This includes any superfood powders you may want to add.) and whisk together.
3) Place cacao butter/powder mixture back into the dehydrator for 5-10 minutes.
4) Take heated cacao mixture and add the heated sweetener. Whisk vigorously.
5) After the mixture is thoroughly combined, you have a chocolate that is ready to use for dipping or drizzling.
