These vegan waffles are fluffy on the inside but crisp on the outside! They are the perfect, light vessel for sweet and savoury waffle dishes. Add your favourite fruit, vegan whipped cream, powdered sugar and a drizzle of maple syrup, or switch it up to a savoury vegan chicken and waffles by adding a bit of cinnamon and cayenne to your syrup to drizzle over some crisp vegan fried seitan or tofu.

Made these this Christmas morning for my husband and me and they were very tasty, unlike other vegan waffle recipes I’ve tried. Thank you! It’s a keeper!
Lisa Le says
Thanks for the comment! I can’t take all the credit, I based it off of another recipe, but I like them too. I made them for my brother (who is not vegan) the other day and he loved em!
Shelley says
I’ve been making these for months and just wanted to let you know out of all of my vegan waffle making, these are my favorite.
I’ve been taking more wheat out of my diet lately, have you tried using a gluten free flour? Just wondering how the turn out was.
Thank you!!! Shelley
Lisa Le says
Aw thanks! I haven’t tried making it with GF flour. But with the right all-purpose mix, it should be interchangeable =) The flax really helps bind it, so if you’re trying GF flour, maybe add a bit extra flax + water.
Audrey says
Just made them for my husband whose trying to be vegan. They came out pretty good!!! We had plenty for both of us. 5/5 stars!
Dominique says
I made the waffles for my daughter who is vegan. They were really delicious. I used Spelt flour instead of regular all purpose flour. I will definitely make them again. Thank you!
Lisa Le says
Glad you liked them!! :)

This is the best waffle recipe I have ever tried. I’ve made these every weekend for several months. I am currently obsessed with pecan waffles, so a cup of chopped pecans go innthe batter. So good. Thank you for sharing this recipe.
Lisa Le says
Yay!! I’m so glad you liked it :D Pecan waffles sound amazing

These waffles are wonderful! I subbed in brown sugar & sprouted whole wheat flour. Light, fluffy & crispy. My new “go to” waffle–thank you for the recipe!
Tammy Ford says
I love these, thank you, I modified the recipe and added fresh sweet corn blanched and cut from the cob and used 1/2 corn meal and GF flour and chia instead of flax, crispy outside…tender inside with a light sweet corn flavor! Superb,
Hannah says
Hello! I know this recipe is about 5 years old, but I recently found it. And it has become my go to! It’s the only waffle recipe I’ve found where the waffles get crispy on the outside. Thank you!
Sam says
The instructions say coconut oil but the ingredients list does not?
Lisa Le says
Ah whoops! That would be the neutral flavoured oil I mentioned. I’ll adjust now!
Lexi says
I have been making these waffles for a while now and I just needed to leave a comment saying how happy I am this recipe exists. Every time I have a day off I’ll make these and I always have extras for the next couple of days! I usually add cinnamon and frozen blueberries for added flavor and it has been such an amazing breakfast addition. Thank you!
Lisa Le says
I’m so glad these have been so reliable for you!! They’re a favourite of mine too :D
Micki says
