Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Whisk these dry ingredients together until well mixed.
In a separate bowl, combine unsweetened almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Let this mixture sit for about 5 minutes to create a dairy-free buttermilk substitute.
After 5 minutes, add the vegetable oil and vanilla extract to the almond milk mixture. Stir until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or spoon until the batter is just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Gently fold in the fresh blueberries until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Lightly coat the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray. Pour the appropriate amount of batter onto the waffle iron, spreading it evenly (follow your waffle iron's instructions for batter quantity). Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, about 4-6 minutes, depending on your waffle iron.
Carefully remove cooked waffles from the iron and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, extra blueberries, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
