Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups (330 g) store bought or homemade oat flour (see notes for all purpose flour and gluten-free 1:1 baking flour)
- 3 tablespoons coconut sugar or organic granulated cane sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/3 cup (80 g) unsweetened applesauce or dairy-free yogurt (see notes for flax eggs option)
- 1 1/3 cup (320 mL) vegan buttermilk
- Optional: 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 tbsp arrowroot starch, or ground cinnamon for flavor
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil for waffle machine
- Toppings of choice: berries, coconut cream, chocolate chips, nut or seed butter
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, and optional cinnamon and arrowroot (if using) together.
- Add in the applesauce , vegan buttermilk, and optional vanilla extract. Mix just until combined (it’s okay for there to be clumps!).
- Heat the waffle machine and brush the cooking oil onto the waffle machine. Close the waffle machine, and let the oil sit there for a minute to heat. Make sure to follow the instructions for the manufacturer of your waffle maker, but typically, I give it a few more seconds after the light has gone on indicating that it’s ready. Please also make sure you’re heating the waffles to a hot temperature!
- Prepare the waffles according to your waffle machine. I recommend using 1/2 cup-2/3 cup batter per waffle.
- Gently remove the waffle from the machine with a silicone spatula (never metal) and serve with desired toppings!
- See blog post for storage and freezing tips!
