Description

These easy vegan waffles are crispy on the outside, super fluffy, and cakey on the inside, and best of all, they have tons of flavor. 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup cashew milk 
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice 
  • 1 tbsp vegan yogurt 
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract 
  • 1/2 cup spelt flour 
  • 1 tsp baking powder 
  • 1 tsp coconut sugar
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt 

Instructions

  1. Plug in your waffle iron to preheat according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. In a measuring cup, pour in the cashew milk, lemon juice, vegan yogurt, and vanilla extract. Whisk well and set aside to ‘curdle’ for 5 minutes. 
  3. In a mixing bowl, add in the spelt flour, baking powder, coconut sugar, and salt. Whisk to combine. 
  4. Pour in the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients and mix to combine using a flexible rubber spatula. The batter should be thick and homogenous. 
  5. Spray the waffle iron with avocado oil spray and spoon in the amount of batter recommended by the manufacturer (my machine uses the entire amount of batter). Cook for at least 6 minutes or until crispy.
  6. Let the waffle rest for 2 minutes to help steam escape and make the waffle more cakey in texture. Top with vegan butter and honey (or maple syrup) and enjoy!

Notes

Feel free to add in mix-in’s like chocolate chips or blueberries. 

This is the waffle iron I use; the quality is amazing and it’s affordable.
