Categories     Breakfast

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups (250g) flour (spelt, light whole wheat, all-purpose flour, or GF flour blend), see notes
2 tablespoons sugar (coconut, pure cane, or turbinado)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 3/4 cups (403ml) unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1/4 cup olive oil, applesauce (see notes), or vegan butter (I recommend Miyoko's)
pinch of mineral salt, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat waffle maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Also, preheat oven to 200 degrees F., for keeping the waffles warm.
  • In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, oil and non-dairy milk, mix well, until most of the flour lumps are gone.
  • If not using a non-stick waffle iron, spray waffle plate with cooking oil. Using a 1/2 measuring cup (amounts will vary depending on your waffle iron), scoop up batter and pour in the center of waffle plate. Close the cover and cook as directed by manufacturer's instructions. For crispier waffles, let cook 5 - 12 seconds longer, depending on your waffle iron.
  • Gently remove with the tip of a fork and place on a wire rack in the oven until the remaining waffles are made.
  • Pair your waffles with fresh blueberries, strawberries, raspberries or blackberries, and top with pure maple syrup or this easy homemade Blueberry Compote. You may even like to drizzle with vegan chocolate syrup and add a dollop of whipped coconut cream.
  • Makes 4 - 5 waffles.
  • Leftover waffles can be kept in the refrigerator for up to a week, or store in the freezer for up to 1- 2 months. When ready to eat, pop them in the toaster oven. Larger batches can be warmed in a preheated oven set to 350 degrees for 10 - 15 minutes, using a greased or lined baking sheet.

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 14-ounce can full-fat coconut milk (about 1 3/4 cups)
1 vanilla bean
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt (I like fine-grain sea salt for this recipe)
Your favorite cooking spray (if needed (I have a non-stick waffle maker so I don't need or use any spray))
Pure maple syrup
Butter (or vegan butter)
Fresh berries

Steps:

  • Preheat your waffle maker.
  • If the coconut milk is solidified, place it into a small saucepan and set over low heat. Heat just until liquid, but not warm.
  • Pour coconut milk into a large mixing bowl. Scrape the pulp of the vanilla bean into the coconut milk (discard the pod) or add vanilla bean paste or extract. Stir to combine.
  • Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir gently with a wooden spoon just until combined (if you overmix, you risk making the waffles tough; don't worry, a few lumps are okay).
  • Spray your preheated waffle maker with cooking spray, if using. Pour batter into your waffle maker according to manufacturer instructions, as waffle makers vary. My waffle maker takes a heaping 1/3 cup per side.
  • Cook until golden brown, as per your individual waffle maker.
  • Serve with pure maple syrup, butter (or vegan butter), fresh berries, or anything else you'd like!

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your waffles will be.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your waffles tough.
  • Cook the waffles on a hot waffle iron: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking.
  • Serve the waffles immediately: Waffles are best when served hot and fresh.
  • Top the waffles with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include butter, syrup, fruit, and whipped cream.
