Trim and chop the Brussels sprouts into thin slices or shred them using a food processor.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, ground black pepper, nutritional yeast, onion powder, and garlic powder.
In a separate bowl or measuring cup, combine the almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Allow the mixture to sit for about 5 minutes to curdle slightly, creating a vegan buttermilk.
Add the olive oil and maple syrup to the vegan buttermilk mixture and whisk until incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold the chopped Brussels sprouts into the batter until evenly incorporated.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Pour enough batter into the waffle iron to cover the surface, and cook until crispy and golden brown, usually about 5-7 minutes per waffle.
Repeat with the remaining batter until all waffles are cooked.
Serve hot with your choice of toppings, such as vegan butter, avocado, or more maple syrup.
