In a small bowl, mix the ground flaxseed and water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken, creating a flaxseed egg replacement.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rice flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Stir well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
In another bowl, whisk together the almond milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract.
Add the thickened flaxseed mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until a smooth batter forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray or vegetable oil.
Pour some batter onto the preheated waffle iron, spreading it towards the edges if needed. Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, about 4 to 5 minutes, depending on your waffle iron's settings.
Carefully remove the waffles from the iron and keep them warm while you cook the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
