What can I add to vegan waffles?

Add chocolate chips, sliced bananas, blueberries, or crushed nuts to the waffle batter.

How should I serve them?

Vegan banana waffles are delicious with a drizzle of maple syrup but you can always take them up a notch with more toppings! A few of my favorites are macerated strawberries , walnuts, vegan whipped cream, fresh berries, shaved chocolate, caramel sauce , lemon curd, vegan yogurt, and nut butter.

How long do vegan waffles last?

You can store the leftover cooked waffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Can I freeze vegan banana waffles?

Yes! They freeze beautifully, actually. Just wrap them up well in plastic or in a ziploc bag and freeze for up to 3 months. When it’s time to eat, just pop them in the toaster from frozen or reheat in the microwave.

Notes

To store and freeze: waffles will keep covered in fridge for up to 5 days and to freeze wrap in plastic wrap or ziplock bag for up to 3 months in freezer. Just pop in toaster from frozen or reheat in microwave.
Gluten free waffles: use gluten free flour such as Bob's Red mill
I usually buy a carton of orange juice for this recipe but feel free to use freshly squeezed or sub lemon juice ( my daughter does this and loves it!)
If your waffle mix is to thick add little plant milk (I like oat or almond milk), too thin add little flour.
I have not tested this recipe with whole wheat flour but I'm sure it would be fine!
