Recipe for Vegan Waffles (3-ingredients)
I’m going to show you how to make a 3-ingredient vegan waffle for one, or vegan waffles for more than one person!
You might think I’m going to share a recipe for vegan waffles using oats, oatmeal or packaged mix but you’ll be surprised to read that we’re using bread instead!
Bread?!
Now hear me out… If you grill two slices of bread with your favourite filling and grill in a waffle iron in 2 mins, you’ll have a vegan waffle! Thanks to the waffle iron, it toasts the bread so perfectly and it almost feels like you’re truly eating a waffle without the mess of blending oats, mixing flour, or boxed waffle mix.
It also looks like a waffle, especially if you cut the sides off
You can make this gluten-free by using gluten-free bread! Kids love this recipe for breakfast or even for school lunches! College students also love it because it’s super easy to make using a waffle maker, bread, and PB&J!
