Guest guest Posted June 11, 2002 Report Share Posted June 11, 2002 Hello all, I was just wondering if anyone has a good recipe for Vegan waffles. My family loves waffles, however, the brands I have found in my HFS are very expensive. I have just gotten a chest freezer so it would be nice to make and freeze some for the family rather than pay $3+ per box of store bought ones. I have already acquired a Belgian waffle iron, but I can't seem to find any recipes in my dozen or so vegan cookbook... go figure. If I can't find a good waffle recipe I will have to suffice for a good pancake recipe and try that out in the maker. Please help my family has been BEGGING me for waffles!! P.S. The healthier the recipes the better... ( I do have a couple pancake recipes but they aren't very nutritious, I need something they can eat as often as they like.) Thank you, Debbie..... .....mom to a 5yr old pricess,and 2 1/2 yr old prince both of whom love and constantly crave waffles!!! - Official partner of 2002 FIFA World Cup http://fifaworldcup.

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2002 Report Share Posted June 12, 2002 I modified my Dad's recipe and it works really well. I've also made it without any of the oil and it works fine for non-fat pancakes. (I'm not sure how it would work in a waffle iron with no oil though). 3cups flour (I use 2 cups whole wheat, 1 cup white) 3tsp baking powder 1/4c sweetener of your choice (I use unrefined cane sugar, if you use a liquid you may have to reduce the other liquid a bit) pinch of salt if you like (combine dry ingredients first) 1/3 cup veg. oil 2 TBSP dry Egg replacer mixed with 3/4 cup water (the original recipe called for 1 egg) 2-3TBSP Flax meal mixed with 3/4 cup water (You can use this to replace the egg, but I often use both egg replacer and flax to make them a little more fluffy and get my Omega 3s) 1tsp vanilla 2-3 cups soy milk (add until the mixture is pancake consistancy) Mix it all together. I like to add some fruit too like 1 cup of blueberries or some sliced apples. Enjoy, Mel. > > Abitof Mystique [a_bit_of_mystique] > Tuesday, June 11, 2002 3:46 PM > > Desparately seeking Vegan Waffles > > > Hello all, > > I was just wondering if anyone has a good recipe for > Vegan waffles.

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2002 Report Share Posted June 12, 2002 There is a great waffle recipe in 'The New Vegan Cookbook' (the picture of the waffles is on the front). When my mom was alive she used to make a big batch and freeze them. She thought it was the best waffle recipe she'd ever used (vegan or not). I think there are copyright laws against me posting it so I'll send it to you privately. Linda - Official partner of 2002 FIFA World Cup http://fifaworldcup.

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2002 Report Share Posted June 12, 2002 Ironically, I just pulled out my old waffle iron today because I plan to introduce waffles to my 19 month old very soon now that he has more teeth. (I haven't made waffles since 1999 - just pancakes!) The following is a simple recipe from Ten Talents that I used repeatedly and plan to use for my child's first waffle: Best Blueberry Waffles Into a bowl put 4 cups oats, quick 1/4 cup corn meal Then add 4 cups milk (soy or nut or water) 1/4 cup oil Mix well together. Next add 1 tsp. salt 1 tbs. lemon juice 1/2 tsp. vanilla (optional) Fold in: 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries 1 Tbs. honey (if berries are unsweetened) Let stand at least 2 hours or in refrigerator overnight. Bake on hot waffle iron 6-7 minutes. - " Abitof Mystique " <a_bit_of_mystique Tuesday, June 11, 2002 6:45 PM Desparately seeking Vegan Waffles > Hello all, > > I was just wondering if anyone has a good recipe for > Vegan waffles.

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2002 Report Share Posted June 12, 2002 Debbie I make my own with an organic buckwheat vegan mix available in bulk at my hfs (not very expensive). To this mix I add soy milk, orange zest, frozen berries (if they're around), and sometimes cinnamon. I guestimate the amounts and go by the consistency. They are a bit heavier than regular waffles but taste great (usually!). It takes a little experimenting but my son still happily ate the waffles that didn't turn out as they always tasted okay, if not delicious.

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2002 Report Share Posted June 13, 2002 Debbie, I was just wondering if anyone has a good recipe for Vegan waffles. This one came from PETA's The Compassionate Cook and my non-vegan friends rave about them. It's actually a pancake recipe, but it works extremely well for waffles. Enjoy. 1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon sugar 2 tablespoons baking powder 1/8 teaspoon salt 1 cup soy milk 2 tablespoons vegetable oil Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl and mix thoroughly. Mix in the soy milk and oil, and with an electric mixer or wire whisk, beat just until the batter is smooth.

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2002 Report Share Posted June 14, 2002 I received this one from the Vegetarian Times Weekly Recipe: I don’t know if they’re good or not, but they sound yummy. You may need to substitute something else for the honey for younger babies.

Guest guest Posted June 17, 2002 Report Share Posted June 17, 2002 Debbie, Sorry that I didn't get to you before the waffle-friendly weekend. Here are a few resipes that are family tested and well like by my household.... Sourdough Waffles 1 C. sourdough starter 1 C. lowfat soymilk 1 1/2 C. whole wheat flour 1/2 t. baking soda 1 t. baking powder 1/2 t. salt Mix sourdough starter, soymilk, and 1/2 C. whole wheat flour. Cover and let stand at rom temp. for 12-24 hours. Preheat waffle iron. When ready to cook, mix the remaining 1 C. flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Add the dry mix to the sourdough liquid. Mix gently. Pour on to waffle iron and cook until ready (this recipe seems t cook quickly. They are also thicker/heavier than most waffles, but very tasty.) Basic Waffles 1 1/2 C. soymilk 1 1/2 T. lemon juice or apple cider vinegar 1 1/3 C. whole wheat pastry flour 3/4 t. baking soda 1/2 t. salt 1 T. oil 1T. maple syrup Stir soymilk and lemon juice or vinegar together. Let sit for 2 minutes to curdle. Meanwhile, preheat waffle iron. Wisk the flour, soda, salt together in large bowl. Add the oil and maple syrup into the soymilk. Gently add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until moistened. Do not overmix. Spray waffle iron with oil. Add batter to waffle iron and cook until steaming stops. (This recipes takes longer to cook and the resulting waffle is more " airy " . There are some variations to this recipe, but I'm to lazy right now to type them all in....) Sunflour Oat Waffles 1 3/4 C. soymilk 2 T. lemon juice or apple cider vinegar 1 3/4 C. old fashioned rolled oats 1/4 C. raw sunflower seeds 3/4 t. baking soda 1/2 t. salt 1 T. oil 1T. maple syrup Stir soymilk and lemon juice or vinegar together in a blender. Let sit for 2 minutes to curdle. Meanwhile, preheat waffle iron. Add all the remaining ingredients to the blender. Blend at high speed until thick and creamy, ~60 sec. Spray waffle iron with oil. Add batter to waffle iron and cook until steaming stops. (This recipes takes even longer to cook and the resulting waffle is kind of like an " eggy " popover. These recipes should give you a start!
