Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup cornmeal
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup canned sweet corn, drained
- 2 tablespoons scallions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.25 cup water
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. Stir together until well-mixed.
In a separate bowl, mix the almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for a couple of minutes to curdle and form a vegan buttermilk.
Add the vegan buttermilk, olive oil, and water to the dry ingredients. Stir together until just combined. The mixture should be slightly lumpy.
Fold in the drained corn, chopped scallions, and cilantro into the batter.
Preheat your waffle iron according to its manufacturer's instructions.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with a little oil to prevent sticking.
Pour a portion of the batter onto the waffle iron, spreading it evenly. Cook according to your waffle iron’s instructions until the waffles are golden brown and crispy, approximately 4-5 minutes.
Carefully remove the waffles and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles warm, topped with your choice of vegan-friendly toppings such as avocado, salsa, or vegan sour cream.
