Vegan GF Almond Waffles

Why not make Mom some waffle on Mother’s Day?  These vegan gluten free waffles are easy to make if you have a waffle maker, and so good!  They are light and fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside with a vanilla almond flavor!  I topped them off with a raspberry sauce, but of course they would be delicious with coconut whipped cream, maple syrup or chocolate chips as well!  Feel free to make them your own!

Servings: 4 | Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 10 minutes (depending on what size your waffle maker is) | Ready in: 20 minutes

Ingredients

• 2 cups Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free All Purpose Baking Flour
• 1/4 cup The Maple Dude maple sugar or coconut sugar
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 1 tsp Frontier pure vanilla extract
• 1 tsp Frontier almond extract
• 3 Tbsp ground golden flax seed mixed with 1/2 cup filtered water
• 1 Tbsp Now and Again almond butter
• 2 cups Thai Kitchen full fat coconut milk, at room temperature, whisked until smooth

Instructions

Instructions:

1. To make the waffles, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and sea salt in a large bowl.
2. Then whisk the flax mixture, vanilla and almond extracts, almond butter, and coconut milk together until smooth.
3. Heat your oven to 150F degrees and oil, and pre-heat waffle iron. Once it is heated, pour about 1/3 cup batter onto the waffle iron or until the iron is just covered (but not so much that it will ooze out) and close it.  Cook according to waffle iron package directions.  Remove from the waffle maker and keep warm in the oven while you make the others.  If you have a waffle maker the size of mine (regular belgian waffles), you may have more than 8 waffles.
4. To make the topping, on the stove combine 2 cups fresh or frozen raspberries, and 2 Tbsp maple syrup and cook until the berries are falling apart and jammy.
5. Serve the waffles with the topping!

*If you want to make these not gluten free, you can swap in organic whole wheat pastry flour or regular AP flour 1:1 for the gluten free.
