Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1.75 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or other dairy-free milk)
• 0.5 cups Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.25 cups Neutral oil (e.g., sunflower or canola oil)
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cups Dairy-free chocolate chips (optional, for sweet filling)
• 0.5 cups Cooked and crumbled vegan sausage (optional, for savory filling)
• 0.25 cups Dairy-free cream cheese (optional, for creamy filling)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, mix the almond milk, applesauce, oil, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth.

Step 3

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 4

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and lightly grease it with oil or nonstick spray if needed.

Step 5

Pour a small amount of waffle batter onto the preheated waffle iron, spreading it slightly to cover the surface.

Step 6

Add a spoonful of your chosen filling (e.g., dairy-free chocolate chips, vegan sausage, or dairy-free cream cheese) to the center of the batter.

Step 7

Top the filling with a small amount of additional waffle batter, ensuring that it covers the filling completely.

Step 8

Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffle is golden brown and cooked through, typically 4-6 minutes, depending on your waffle iron.

Step 9

Carefully remove the stuffed waffle and repeat the process with the remaining batter and filling.

Step 10

Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, powdered sugar, or fresh fruit for sweet variations, or dairy-free butter or hot sauce for savory options.
