Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1.5 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or any non-dairy milk)
• 0.25 cups Coconut oil, melted
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 as needed Non-stick spray or oil for waffle iron

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk the dry ingredients together until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the unsweetened almond milk, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth.

Step 3

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl. Stir gently with a whisk or spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.

Step 4

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Once preheated, lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick spray or oil.

Step 5

Ladle the batter onto the waffle iron, using the recommended amount for your specific waffle maker. Spread the batter slightly if needed, then close the lid and cook until the waffle is golden brown and crisp, about 4-6 minutes depending on your waffle iron.

Step 6

Carefully remove the waffle with a fork or tongs and place it on a wire rack to prevent it from becoming soggy. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the waffle iron as needed between batches.

Step 7

Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, or powdered sugar.
