Fluffy Vegan Gluten-Free Waffles (Eggless and Delicious)

Our vegan gluten-free waffles have a crispy exterior, fluffy interior, and a rich, buttery taste without the dairy or eggs. Whipped aquafaba makes them incredibly light, while plant-based yogurt adds moisture and just the right amount of tang.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups gluten free flour Bob's Red Mill 1-to-1
  • 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Wet Ingredients
  • 1 cup plant-based yogurt
  • 1 cup oat milk or dairy-free milk of choice
  • 4 tablespoon aquafaba liquid from canned chickpeas
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Prep the waffle maker: Preheat your waffle iron to medium-high heat and lightly grease it if needed.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon
  3. Add the wet ingredients: Stir in the plant-based yogurt, oat milk, and vanilla extract until just combined. The batter will be thick—this is normal.
  4. Whip the aquafaba: In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the aquafaba on medium speed until stiff peaks form (about 3-5 minutes).
  5. Fold the aquafaba into the batter: Gently fold the whipped aquafaba into the batter using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix, as this will deflate the air and make the waffles denser.
  6. Cook the waffles: Scoop about ½ to ¾ cup of batter onto the hot waffle maker and close the lid. Cook for 4-6 minutes or until the waffles have a crispy texture and golden brown color.
  7. Serve: Remove from the waffle maker and let the waffles rest for a few seconds on a wire rack to maintain their crispness. Top with pure maple syrup, fresh berries, or any favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Storage: Store leftover waffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze in a single layer for up to 3 months.
  • Main Tip: Don't skip whipping the aquafaba. Let the batter rest for a few minutes before folding in the whipped aquafaba to allow the gluten-free flours to absorb moisture and improve the texture properly.
  • Aquafaba Tip: Whipping the aquafaba is essential for achieving a light, fluffy texture. Don’t skip this step! If you overmix after folding it in, you’ll lose some of the airiness.
