7-Ingredient Vegan Gluten-Free Waffles

I just made these. The batter is delicious and so is the finished product, however when I open the waffle iron the waffle didn’t stay together. Half is stuck to the top and half to the bottom. I did it again with a GENEROUS amount of oil and same result. So bummed. Any thoughts?

LOVE THIS RECIPE!
Used ‘Natures Directions’ GF blend, added cocoa powder, and used half cocomilk/almond milk. So great! I just wish our waffle iron wasn’t so sticky(probably need some oil spray as well). But fantastic. Definitely referring back to this when I want waffles again!

I loved LOVED loved this recipe, is the second time I’ve made them this year and my family loved them too (and no one believed they were vegan) I took some of the batter apart and mixed it with cocoa and chocolate chips and it was delicious too!

Thanks for this <3

Loved these waffles!! I used homemade oat milk and sunflower oil instead of almond milk and olive oil. My family loved them!

I’ve never made a MB recipe that didn’t turn out perfectly, so I was rather surprised to read all the comments of waffles gone wrong.
I just bought a waffle maker, and made my first batch of waffles today from this recipe, and they were delicious, cooked through in no time, crispy, and just plain good.
I used all-purpose flour, and added just over 1 cup of that, based on previous comments. Only got 4.5 waffles on my maker, so will be sure to double or triple the recipe next time. Love the idea of toasting waffles on a weekday morning. Thanks Dana – it’s a winner.

I use this recipe when I make vegan chickn and waffles. The first time I made it, I was impressed with the flavor but they turned out a little dense so the next time I made them, I used more vegan buttermilk so the batter was thinner. I would say I added around 1/4 cup more almond milk and 1/2 teaspoon more of the apple cider vinegar. Amazing. Light and crisp on the edges. This is definitely my go to waffle recipe now! Thank you, Dana!

Also I love my Everyday Cooking cookbook! I plan on making at least 2 things out of it a week.

Great recipe. Yields about 7 on my waffle maker. I do have to add about 3/4 to 1 cup more milk.

Such a good recipe! Best waffle recipe i have tried so far that is vegan. I added in chopped banana flax seed vanilla and some peanut butter in the mixture and they turned out nice and crispy and didnt stick at all. The whole family loved them. You wouldn’t even know that they are healthy.

Soo good! My fav new waffle recipe. ?

Soo good! Fav new Waffel recipe. ?

These are the best waffles I have ever made or eaten!! Thank you so much. I love everything you do!!

I am testing different gluten free recipes to make from scratch because the mixes can be a bit pricey and for a family of four I’m looking for something more cost efficient. This recipe is my 2nd attempt at a gluten free waffle recipe today (1st attempt failed horribly). I made your Gluten Free flour recipe and used it to make these waffles. I followed the directions exactly using coconut oil and honey. The batter was so thick (as thick as if not thicker than bread dough) but I proceeded with cooking them anyway. I oiled my waffle iron, added the batter and let it cook for a few minutes. The batter was so thick that the lid was popping up so I held it down. Well, it cooked up just fine, didn’t stick or fall apart. It was just super dense and heavy. It tasted really good but it was kinda hard to chew. Now it is sitting in my stomach like a rock!! I won’t make these again…

I made these this morning for my vegan son (24) and my non -vegan husband. I didn’t have almond milk and so I used water but made no other changes. I even included the apple cider vinegar. I love that it had oatmeal in it. My son had smelled me making waffles last week for my church and he was missing waffles and this was the perfect solution. They came out so good, that I might not even try the almond milk – it was perfect just as it was.

Thank you so much.

These are absolutely delicious, thanks so much for sharing!! My roommate in college had a waffle iron (I think it’s actually the same one you picture here) and I used to make these all the time… well, now I’ve been missing them so much that I actually invested in my own waffle iron JUST to make these >.< I like to add some flax seeds in the mixture and spread them with almond butter for a scrumptious and filling breakfast or snack.

The BEST waffles i have made! I adjusted the gf flour blend a little (used sorghum in place of white rice an used arrowroot starch in place of tapioca) also added the 1 tsp xanthum gum. Also added the tablespoon flax , cinnamon and vanilla to the batter – so so good!!!

I made these this morning and when I had the batter all together, I questioned if they would turn out. It was so thin and all the oats kinda bunched in the center of the waffle maker. I used bobs red mill gluten free flour but otherwise followed the recipe to a T.
Once cooked, I was surprised they looked okay. I allowed them to cool and then gave it a try. They had a slight crunch to them, almost like they were deep fried. My first thought, these taste like fair fried dough! So good! My daughter requested to try and proclaimed I make the best waffles! She then says “‘mom, these taste like that dough at the fair!” ? New favorite waffle recipe ✅

Im not usually the type to leave comments but these are too good to be silent.They are really fluffy and light. I did make a little adjustment. I add 1 tsp of lime juice ( or you can do lemon juice ) to the almond milk because I am allergic to apple. I got that idea from the best vegan biscuit recipe on this blog. I also added 1/2 tsp of both cinnamon and pumpkin spice. And vanilla. My whole family really enjoyed them. THANK YOU ?

OKAAAAY GUYS! these are seriously amazing.

I didnt use gluten free flour, i popped a bunch of extra raisins cinnamon and vanilla in there, fresh bananas on top. holy crap.

WHY DID I WAIT SO LONG TO TRY THIS! THANK YOU 100 TIMES OVER.

Thanks for this great recipe! It ticks so many boxes and the waffles are absolutely delicious and crisp on the outside. I used a mixture of oat and rice milks, avocado oil and added flax and vanilla. Came out super good and will make these again :)

Delicious waffles! Even if you don’t have all the ingredients!

I made these (half mix) using oat milk, flaxseed, agave syrup (although would have been amazing with maple but didn’t have any) and plain flour instead of GF flour. Added vanilla and a sprinkle of cinnamon. We don’t have a waffle iron so made them in a griddle pan with a far bit of oil and despite being my my first time making waffles they came out pretty good- even my sister who is anti-vegan loved them. I had mine with walnuts, banana & syrup although caramelising the walnuts would have probably been even better. Would definitely make again- although want to try out Dana’s many other waffle recipes first.

Just made these for my not-vegan/skeptical parents who only had bleached flour on hand. I added a dash of cinnamon and flax to the mix, just to make sure the binding was right. Added fresh blueberries and topped with roasted pecans. Seriously so delicious! I am so glad this was such a hit!!

I don’t mean to be a downer, but mine tasted terrible. The baking soda was the only taste I could detect, resulting in having to drown the waffle in maple syrup. It was a strange crumble yet crunchy consistency and was hard to move to the plate. All the other reviews seem good so i guess i did something wrong…

You are either born a French toast, pancake, or waffle person. I’m a waffle person and these are the best waffles hands down, vegan or not. Amazing! Thank you!

I just made these. Used Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Flour and Quaker Quick cook oats. Added the cinnamon and flax. They are delicious!! Thank you for another great recipe.

Please make a grams recipe for this. Mine cup doesnt taste good :(
I tried it 3 times

These were great! I used coconut oil, and the oil melted outside of my pan, it pooled and just leaked all over the place. It was quite surprising. Next time I guess I would use a different oil or use less coconut oil.

I doubled the oil & almond milk and omitted the sweetener. They were delicious plain or topped with earth balance, maple syrup, coconut whip. Some were a little soft, so recommend crisping up in the oven while making the rest of the waffles.

Made with no added sugar cashew milk, Bob’s gluten free all purpose flour, and grapeseed oil. Added vanilla, ground flax, and extra agave. Sprayed iron really well and they didn’t stick nor were they raw. I thought they were perfect. Will definitely make again.

I tried this recipe with spelt flour, but when I tried to bake it in the waffle iron it would tear apart. So after some failed attempts I decided to use the batter to bake muffins. They taste so delicious with chocolate drops.

Btw I really enjoy your recipes. They are not too fancy and complicated. They also taste great.

I absolutely love this recipe! You can use any number of flour combos and it comes out great. Just know that 140 grams of any flour is 1 cup. Just be sure to minimize the flours that absorb alot of liquid (like coconut). I’m on a rotational diet for food allergies so I’ve a different blend for each day. For example: quinoa/chickpea/ almond, or buckwheat/potato starch, or corn masa/arrowroot/coconut. I sub out the whole amount, flour and oats for a total of 2 1/4 cups or 315 grams. I’ve also subbed out the sweetners and oil. I find it works best with a blend of flours. Tried straight flax but that’s too wet. Overall excellent, easy, and flexible. Thanks for sharing!

I LOVE THESE WAFFLES. Perfect for me to make, I am personally vegan & gluten free therefore its the best of both worlds ! Thank you for this recipe. I have been making them ever since I came across them (every chance I get). Love your blog. xx

I use this recipe weekly. Just adding different fruits each time. It is so great and easy. Love that it’s minimal mess and fills my girl up (&her dad and I). Thanks!!

Delicious and simple! I recently purchased a waffle maker and decided to give this recipe a shot. I had some of the gluten free mix left over from making your donut recipe so these waffles were quite simple to make. They turned out really great! I’m currently finishing the batter to freeze some for tomorrow. Thank you for another great recipe!

SO GOOD. You’re a recipe wizard :) Made these at 9pm at night. Didn’t even have almond milk, so I made my own one hour prior. Of course, at 9PM I HAD to have some chocolate, so I added about 1/3 cup of cacao powder. Cooked these for about 4-5 minutes on my waffle iron.

Topped it off with fresh mixed berries and a tbsp of maple syrup.
Oh girl.

These waffles turned out delicious! Although, for the gluten-free flour blend I used what I had in my cupboard and created my own – which was not the best idea (1/2 a cup sorghum flour, 1/2 millet flour, 2/4 brown rice flour, 1/4 potato strach and 1 tsp xantham gum) – the mixture turned out too thick and I had to add milk until the texture became more liquid. Overall, the taste was amazing and I was surprised to see that I did not need eggs to make great waffles.

Thanks for the recipe – love your blog :)

I just recently started transitioning vegan, and i was really missing waffles, and these are so!!! good!!! I made them for a friend too and they loved them as well! Thank you!!!!

I made these after recently going vegan, and they were wonderful! Topped them with strawberries and blueberries. I had enough batter to make 6 waffles so I’ll be keeping the extras in the freezer when I’m in a rush!

Didn’t work well with whole wheat flour. I otherwise followed every direction and the waffles turned out dry and crunchy vs crispy. I even had one set split apart.
Flavor was okay but texture was not ideal. Does the GF flour mix make the difference?

Since finding this recipe (a couple weeks ago while looking for a Christmas Eve brunch option) we have made these probably 17 times. They are DELICIOUS and I highly recommend. They go great with sliced bananas on the top :)

These are seriously my favorite vegan waffles!
I used a Belgium waffle iron maker and these turned out great! Even though they are gluten free, they don’t taste “gluten free,” if that makes sense. The battle was very thick so I had to spread it in the waffle iron. I also used Bob’s Red Mills gluten free 1-1 baking flour + maple syrup as the sweeter + avocado oil + unsweetened vanilla cashew milk + a dash of almond extract. This recipe only made 3 waffles with my waffle iron so next time I make these (probably tomorrow!) I’m going to double or triple the recipe so I’ll have lots of extra!
These waffle are just absolutely delicious! Thank you for a wonderful recipe that I know I will be making again and again!

Hello, found your recipe just this past week. i wanted to make something special for christmas morning. we have egg, gluten and nut intolerances. so happy i found your recipe. i did as you said – putting dry ingredients in mason jars – so in the morning i just put the few liquids and dumped the dry into the bowl. so good. i did the first one with cinnamon and second batch with chocolate chips. i did cook a bit longer to get a nice toasty brown look in the iron. we froze the extras and i think they taste even better re-toasted. i just made another batch for tomorrow. one daughter said it tasted almost like churros. three batches in less than three days. thank you for great recipe. i won’t have to buy store bought frozen waffles anymore.

I just made these and they turned out great! I tried one batch as is and another batch with about 1/2 cup more almond milk since the batter was very thick. I would suggest sticking to the original recipe because adding more milk made the insides a bit more gooey. I set my waffle temp to med/high and had to cook for about 10 minutes in both instances. Thanks for the awesome recipe!

This is my only go to vegan/gluten free waffle! They are crunchy, lite and tasty! In the past ive added pumpkin puree to make it a little pumpkiny plus spices, chocolate chips, fruit, and even cocoa powder to make chocolate waffles! Such an easy recipe! I even was able to sub the oats using ceushed almonds (lots of almonds) and it came out great! So many options and modifications with this recipe. Cooking them is always fun!

The taste of these waffles are great! I added some cold water to the batter after trying out one waffle, because i want my waffles a bit thinner and crispier. Great recipe, will make these again!
