🌱 Craving something sweet for breakfast? Try out these easy Vegan Waffles! 🧇
Ingredients:
• 1 1/2 cups unsweetened nut milk
• 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup melted coconut oil or sunflower oil
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• Vegan margarine (I use the ONA margarine, from STC Hypermarket)
Instructions:
1. Mix the nut milk, vanilla extract and the apple cider vinegar together in a small bowl. Set aside for about 5 minutes - this will make vegan buttermilk.
2. In a large bowl, sift the flour, baking powder and salt.
3. Add the sugar, oil, buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients and using a whisk, gently mix the batter until just combined. It's okay to have some lumps.
4. Turn on and preheat your waffle maker (I use the highest setting). Grease it using the vegan margarine.
5. Using a soup ladle, scoop out some batter and pour into the middle of the waffle maker. (I fill the ladle up until about half-full, otherwise the waffle becomes too large and sticks inside the machine).
6. Close and let cook until the waffle is golden brown. Don't open it too early, otherwise the batter will separate inside the machine! I usually wait about 3 minutes before checking.
7. Place the cooked waffles separately on a baking sheet (piling warm waffles on top of one another will make them soggy).
8. Serve with your favourite toppings! I enjoy them with the vegan Hazelnut Cacao Spread from Spar (a vegan alternative to Nutella).
