I have made this recipe so many times and always works like a charm. All-purpose flour provides the perfect base for creating light, airy waffles that have just the right amount of crunch on the outside.
The addition of no sugar apple sauce it adds moisture and a natural sweetness to the waffles and is the perfect substitute for eggs in this recipe. Not only does it bring the ingredients together, but it also adds a subtle hint of sweetness and fruity flavor that complements the other ingredients perfectly.
Natural vanilla extract gives them a subtle vanilla flavor, resulting in waffles that are irresistibly decadent.
Making these vegan waffles is a breeze. with just a few simple ingredientsa bowl and your waffle maker, you can whip up a batch in no time
Top them with your favorite fruits, drizzle with maple syrup, or add a dollop of dairy-free yogurt for the perfect breakfast. Or try them with vegan coconut whipped cream or even vegan vanilla ice cream on top for a more decadent version.
Ingredients and substitutions
- apple sauce – I use sugar-free applesauce.
- Almond milk – no sugar Oat or soy milk also works well.
- flour – I usually use all purpose flour for waffles. I haven’t tried making them with whole wheat flour yet. Use a gluten-free flour blend if necessary.
- Brown sugar – If you want, you can replace it with coconut flour.
- coconut oil – I think the subtle coconut flour complements the other ingredients perfectly. But the recipe also works with canola oil or melted vegan butter or margarine.
- Copper powder
- Vanilla extract – I use organic natural vanilla extract.
How to make this recipe
1. Step: Combine all ingredients for the vegan waffles in a medium bowl.
2. /3. step: Using a hand mixer, stir well until all lumps are removed. The dough will be quite thin. Don’t worry, this is normal!
4. Step: Heat your waffle iron and grease it with coconut oil or canola oil on both sides (top and bottom). Ladle the batter into the waffle iron. It depends on your waffle maker how much batter you need, so check the manufacturer’s instructions.
5. Step: Close your waffle maker and bake the waffles for about 5 minutes until golden and crispy on the outside. Don’t open the waffle maker too soon. Serve the waffles immediately with maple syrup and berries or other fruit. Enjoy!
Recipe notes
- It depends a little on your waffle maker how long the waffles take. Mine took about 5 minutes, but it can also take up to 7 minutes. Be sure not to open the waffle maker too soon. Many waffle irons have a green light, which tells you when the waffles are ready.
- I recommend checking the manufacturer’s instructions to see if you need to grease your waffle iron or use a non-stick spray. Some require it and some don’t.
- Don’t worry if the dough will be very thin. This is totally normal!
storage
These homemade vegan waffles will last approx 2 to 3 days when properly stored. It is best to store them in an airtight container in the fridge to maintain their freshness.
Freezing
These waffles freeze very well. Just follow these three simple steps:
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper and place the waffles on it.
- Place the tray in the freezer until they are completely frozen. This will take about two hours.
- Then transfer the frozen waffles to freezer bags or containers.
They will last in the freezer for 3-4 months or even more. To reheat them, just pop them in the toaster until they’re hot and crispy.
Variations
If you want to change the recipe a bit, you can add:
- mini chocolate chips (about 1/4 cup)
- 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and 2 tablespoons of finely chopped apple
- a handful of blueberries or raspberries
Gluten free version
I recommend using a gluten-free flour blend if you want to make these gluten-free waffles.
