Calories 404kcal
Equipment
- Large bowl
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons ground flaxseed equivalent of 3 eggs
- ½ cup water
- 6 tablespoons vegan butter such as Earth Balance, melted
- 1 ½ cups non-dairy milk
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- pinch salt
- pure maple syrup to drizzle on top
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron.
- Stir the ground flaxseed and water together and let sit until it reaches a thick and creamy consistency. Add the melted butter and non-dairy milk and whisk together until well incorporated.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Stir, create a well in the center of your dry ingredients, and pour in the milk mixture. Whisk until combined. If you'd like to add any optional ingredients (like chocolate chips, banana, or coconut shreds), fold them in now.
- Scoop desired amount of batter onto the hot waffle iron, close the lid, and bake until the waffle is golden brown. Serve immediately or keep warm in a single layer on a rack in a 200°F oven while you finish cooking the rest.

Notes
- If you use less butter, you may have trouble with the waffles sticking to your iron. I find that 6 tablespoons is perfect, but you can add more if that's your preference.
