Prep Time
5 minutes
Cook Time
15-20 minutes
Servings
4-6 waffles
Ingredients
  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 4 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 3/4 cups Non-dairy milk (such as almond or soy)
  • 1/4 cup Melted coconut oil or vegan butter
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar

Get Started

In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Make sure there are no lumps in the dry ingredients.

Add Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together the non-dairy milk, melted coconut oil (or vegan butter), vanilla extract, and apple cider vinegar. The apple cider vinegar helps to activate the baking powder, creating a lighter texture.

Combine Wet and Dry

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter; a few lumps are okay.

Cook the Waffles

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or a bit of coconut oil. Pour the batter onto the preheated waffle iron (amount depends on your waffle iron size). Cook until the waffles are golden brown and crispy, usually about 3-5 minutes per waffle.

Serve and Enjoy

Carefully remove the waffles from the waffle iron and serve immediately. Top with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, vegan whipped cream, or chocolate sauce. Enjoy your delicious vegan waffles!
