Ingredients
Crafting these dairy-free delights requires just 10 simple ingredients, most already in your pantry. Here’s your roadmap:
Dry Ingredients for Your [Waffle Recipe Without Milk]
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (or 1:1 gluten-free flour for GF waffles)
- 1 tbsp baking powder (ensure it’s fresh for maximum rise)
- ¼ tsp salt (balances sweetness)
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar (optional; omit for savory waffles)
Wet Ingredients for Your [Waffle Recipe Without Milk]
- 2 large eggs (or 2 flax eggs for vegan waffles: 2 tbsp ground flaxseed + 5 tbsp water)
- ⅓ cup neutral oil (avocado, vegetable, or melted dairy-free butter)
- 1¾ cups water (or sparkling water for extra lift—a [pro crispy waffle tip]!)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional; enhances warmth)
Optional Add-Ins
- ½ tsp cinnamon (for spiced waffles)
- Zest of 1 lemon or orange (bright, citrusy twist)
- ½ cup dairy-free chocolate chips (indulgent [flavor variations for waffles])
Substitutions
- Flour: Swap with whole wheat pastry flour for extra fiber.
- Oil: Replace with unsweetened applesauce (reduce water by 2 tbsp) for lower-fat waffles.
- Sugar: Use coconut sugar or maple syrup (adjust batter consistency with extra flour if needed).

Instructions
1. Prep Tools
Preheat waffle iron to medium-high. Lightly grease with oil or dairy-free butter.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients
Whisk 2 cups flour, 1 tbsp baking powder, ¼ tsp salt, and 2 tbsp sugar (optional) in a bowl.
3. Blend Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk 2 eggs (or flax eggs), ⅓ cup oil, 1¾ cups water, and 1 tsp vanilla until smooth.
4. Combine Batter
Pour wet mix into dry ingredients. Fold gently until just combined (lumps are okay!).
5. Cook Waffles
Ladle batter onto iron (fill ⅔ of grid). Cook 4-5 minutes until steam slows and edges are golden.
6. Serve & Customize
Serve hot with toppings like maple syrup, berries, or nut butter. For savory waffles, skip sugar and add herbs or cheese.
7. Store or Freeze
Cool leftovers on a wire rack. Freeze between parchment paper for up to 2 months. Reheat in a toaster or oven.
