Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Beetroot powder
- 1.25 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 0.25 cup Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and beetroot powder until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for 5 minutes to create a vegan buttermilk.
Add the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil to the almond milk mixture and stir well.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not over-mix; a few lumps are fine.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with a bit of vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
Pour the batter into the preheated waffle iron, using about 1/2 cup of batter per waffle or according to your waffle iron's specifications.
Cook the waffles until they are crispy and cooked through, usually about 5 minutes, depending on your waffle iron.
Carefully remove the waffles from the iron and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles warm, optionally topped with vegan cream cheese or fresh fruits.
