Blueberry Waffles
Blueberry Waffles
When I decide to have a sweet breakfast I generally lean towards pancakes over waffles. The exception is when there are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside waffles to be had! These are so easy to make and the batter will keep in the refrigerator for a few days so you can have a delicious breakfast any day of the week. I added blueberries while they were cooking and served them with a simple Blueberry Compote, butter and maple Syrup. You can use this recipe and swap out the fruit for strawberries, blackberries, apples or any fruit you like.
Makes 8-10 Waffles (This is a double batter, you can easily half the ingredients to make less waffles)
Ingredients
3/4 cup Just Egg (12 Tbsp) (175ml) or 4 Flax Eggs
3 cups (709ml) Plant Milk
8 Tbsp (115g) Vegan Butter, melted
3 tsp (15ml) Vanilla
2 1/2 Tbsp (37ml) Apple Cider Vinegar
3 cups (360g) Flour
2 1/2 Tbsp (37g) Baking Powder
1 tsp (5g) Salt
1/4 tsp of Nutmeg
1/4 tsp of Cinnamon
6 Tbsp (70g) Sugar
Blueberry Compote
2 cups of Frozen Blueberries plus 1/3 cup for adding to Waffles
1 Tbsp (15g) Sugar
2 Tbsp (30ml) Water
1 tsp (5ml) Lemon Juice
Optional: 1/4 tsp of Agar Agar to thicken
Flax Egg: For each egg, mix together 1 Tbsp ground Flax meal w/ 3 Tbsp Water
Directions
1.In a bowl, add all of the wet ingredients together and let sit while you prepare the dry.
2. In another larger bowl add together the dry ingredients and mix well.
3. Combine the Wet and Dry ingredients and mix until well combined. A few small lumps are ok. Let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes.
4. While the waffle iron is heating. Make the blueberry compote by adding all of the ingredients except the agar to a small pot on med-high heat. Once the mixture is boiling add in the Agar and continue to cook down until thick. Keep warm until serving.
5. Make the waffles by pouring out 2 laddles full of batter onto the hot waffle iron and add in a few blueberries. Cook to the Iron specifications (roughly about 5-8 minutes) Repeat until you have made the desired amount of waffles or used up the batter.
6. Serve with vegan butter, maple syrup and a generous serving of blueberry compote.
