Ingredients
- 2 medium ripe bananas
- 1.5 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup vegan protein powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, combine the almond milk and apple cider vinegar to create a vegan buttermilk. Let it sit for about 5 minutes.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the vegan buttermilk, vanilla extract, melted coconut oil, and maple syrup. Whisk until all ingredients are well combined.
Step 3
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, vegan protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Step 5
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease with a bit of coconut oil if necessary.
Step 6
Pour a ladleful of the batter into the preheated waffle iron and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions until golden and crispy on the outside, usually about 4-6 minutes per waffle.
Step 7
Carefully remove the waffle and repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Step 8
Serve the waffles warm with your favorite vegan toppings like fresh fruit, more maple syrup, or nut butter.
