Ingredients
Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups plant-based milk
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup (natural)
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil or melted plant-based butter
- 1 teaspoon natural vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder (natural)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon natural gelling agent
Instructions
- Prepare the Wet Ingredients: Whisk together plant-based milk, maple syrup (natural), vegetable oil or melted plant-based butter, natural vanilla extract, and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce in a large bowl until smooth and combined.
- Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together all-purpose flour, baking powder (natural), salt, and natural gelling agent for even distribution.
- Mix Wet and Dry Together: Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Mix carefully to avoid overmixing to maintain a light and airy batter.
- Preheat and Grease Your Waffle Iron: Heat your waffle iron until hot and lightly grease it with vegetable oil or melted plant-based butter to prevent sticking and ensure a golden crust.
- Cook the Waffles: Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the waffle iron and cook according to the machine’s instructions, generally 4-5 minutes, until the waffles are golden brown and crisp.
Notes
- Rest your batter for 5-10 minutes to activate the natural gelling agent and improve texture.
- Pour just enough batter to cover the waffle iron surface to avoid overflow and uneven cooking.
- Keep waffles warm on a wire rack in a warm oven if cooking multiple batches to maintain crispness.
- Use room temperature ingredients to help combine the batter smoothly and cook evenly.
- Experiment with toppings such as fresh fruit, nut butter, and a drizzle of maple syrup (natural) for enhanced flavor.
