Vegan whole wheat and almond meal waffles - no sugar added!

I love my overnight oats for breakfast. I can eat them every day, year-round. But we have a family tradition. Every Saturday my husband makes vegan crapes, and every Sunday I make either vegan pancakes or vegan waffles with this recipe.

And it is funny, as I love the waffles better than pancakes now. But my younger son still wants the pancakes once in a while too.

We want to keep the kids happy, don’t we?

And because making the batter for waffles is very similar to making the batter for pancakes, I can easily make either if needed;)

Double bonus 🙂

As always, I will provide the recipe for the most impatient readers first and will highlight the health benefits of these waffles after 😉

I like using soy milk in this recipe, as it curdles better than other plant-based milk. But almond milk can work too if you are allergic to soy or don’t like using it. We made these vegan waffles with oat milk as well. It didn’t curdle at all, but the waffles were still oh-so-good!

Depending on the waffle maker you have, you will get 6 to 8 waffles from the ingredients list below. And if you are making both waffles and pancakes, it is good for 4 waffles and 4 to 5 pancakes.

If you need more, simply double or triple the ingredients.

Sugar-free, oil-free, egg-free and dairy-free waffles recipe

Yes, vegan breakfast can be delicious without those ingredients!

And yes, you can make the best vegan waffles without them!

There is no sugar in this recipe, but the waffles are sweeter if you are using a ripe banana.

You don’t have to be vegan to try this recipe. If you run out of eggs, this would be a great eggless waffles recipe!

I’ve never made non-vegan waffles. Therefore, I am not sure if the following is true for them as well.  But I find that the waffles are not ready when the waffle maker’s green light turns on.

I always need to wait for 4 to 6 more minutes until they are done. (at that very moment I always tell myself that I should have gotten a bigger capacity waffle maker, duh!)

Also, if my boys are still sleeping when I make waffles (which doesn’t happen often, as my younger one is an early birdie, – welcome to the parenthood!), and I want to keep the waffles warm and crisp, I just turn the oven to 220F and place them on a rack there.

Otherwise, they will get softer if they are in a stack on the plate. Still delicious, but who wants to eat the soft waffles?

You can use whatever toppings you like with them. I like them simply on their own or with some homemade jam. I am sharing a blueberry-raspberry jam recipe on my gardening blog 🙂 You are more than welcome to visit me there as well.

Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 1.5 cup plant-based milk I use soy or almond milk. Oat milk will work too!
  • 1.5 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 banana

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup almond meal add up to 1/4 c more if the batter is too runny
  • 1/4 cup tapioca flour can substitute for arrowroot or rice flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp flax meal optional
  • pinch of Himalayan pink salt can use regular kosher salt too

Instructions

  • In a smaller bowl, mix plant-based milk and apple cider vinegar and let it curdle. I find the soy milk curdles better than other plant-based milks, but almond milk will work too.
  • Turn on the waffle maker. 
  • In a bigger bowl, add all dry ingredients and whisk.
  • Mash banana on a saucer/plate and add it to the milk/apple cider blend. Mix it and add to the dry ingredients bowl and mix. Don't need to overdo.
  • Ladle the batter into a preheated waffle iron. 
  • Wait till the light turns green the second time (it may take 4 to 7 minutes) and check the waffles.
    They must be golden and crispy on the outside but still softer on the inside.
  • Enjoy!

Vegan whole wheat and almond meal waffles - no sugar added!

So, how are these waffles healthier?

First, there is no sugar in them. Woo-hoo!

All sweetness comes from a good ripe banana. Aaaand! there is no banana aftertaste in the final product 😉

Second, we don’t use white flour. The whole wheat flour is generally better for you than the white bleached flour as it is higher in protein and fewer in fat.

It is also higher in fiber than white flour. (1)

Third, the almond flour has 24 grams of protein in a cup. And it is a good source of healthy fats.

Tapioca flour has low calories, low protein and fat numbers, but is a good source of iron.

So, what do you think?

Do you think you can make it? Leave a comment below and remember to share this vegan waffles recipe with your friends! 😉

Going to the gym and looking for a post-workout salad recipe?

    These waffles sound amazing! I rarely treat myself to a homemade breakfast (I usually do smoothies). But I think I need to soon!

I’ve been through a lot in my life. A loss of th I’ve been through a lot in my life. A loss of the loved ones, a loss of a homeland, two(and a half) immigrations, miscarriages, my child’s heart surgery... just to name a few of the life “adventures”...

I might look very confident now. But it was not always the case.

I had to learn to love myself.

I’m lucky to have the best man by my side who’ve helped me discover the best, or at least, the normal 😁 of me.

Yes, it took a while. No, you t was not an easy road.

Loving yourself - it sounded so selfish at times...

But It Is Not!

It is not selfish for many reasons. Ethical, religious, physical, mental - I could find at least a couple of good reasons in each of those categories.

Loving yourself is extremely important.

It is not about validating yourself. It is simply about accepting yourself the way you are.

And the way you are is the best way.

You are smart, beautiful, caring, compassionate, complicated, maybe even very complicated.

But that’s the beauty of who you are.

You are unique.

And life is so much better when you love yourself.

💛

What is that one thing that you know you should do What is that one thing that you know you should do to change your life for better?

What stops you from getting there?

If you think again, what do you really think (or know) that stops you?

What one step do you need to make to start the change?

This year has been unique in many senses. It was not easy for many of us.

It was not comforting and for sure challenged many of us in various ways.

Both good and not so good.

I’m happy I was able to keep working out whether at home or in the gym, as it’s been helpful to keep myself sane during these times.

It for sure caused me sleep less as I’m a very light sleeper in general, and my brain just kept spinning with all kinds of thoughts throughout the night.

But.

My one step to make it change for better has been trying to go to bed a little earlier than my “normal”.

I’ve rediscovered that listening to audio books or podcasts is extremely helpful to set my brain for positive vibes.

What is your one thing that you can and want to do to change your life for better?

Who else felt like they needed a short break from Who else felt like they needed a short break from social media during this Black-Friday week?

As much as I support small and big entrepreneurs, I felt like I was bombarded with emails of all sorts and I decided it was time to simply go low profile and enjoy time with my family.

Yes, I’m still guilty of purchasing a few things, but that is only because, as I said, I wanted to support my fav businesses and influencers 😊

And yes, I still need to do some shopping but I still have time. Right? 🤓

What did you end up buying?

“How many meals a day do I need to have? What ab “How many meals a day do I need to have? What about snacks?”

So many of us ask this questions when it comes to weight management and workout plans.

If you know me well enough you can probably guess what my answer to them will be:

It depends.

😁

No two people are the same and their needs are neither the same. What’s good and works for me won’t necessarily work for you.

Do you work a regular schedule or it fluctuates? Do you have breaks for snacks? What are your fitness and health goals?

Sometimes we forget or don’t think to ask those questions.

We are unique and that’s awesome! That makes life so interesting!

We don’t need to compare ourselves and our successes/failures to those of others.

First, because no one is perfect. Second, because those are not failures but rather the life experience.

So, do you like having a breakfast or you prefer having a full meal later in a day?

As much as I like my morning oatmeal (or pancakes if it’s a weekend), if that is something that wouldn’t work for you, than you make it work your way.

You just need to learn to enjoy the process of getting where you want to be.

Happy Sunday!

💛
