Vegan Banana Waffles
Category: Breakfast

This recipe is suitable for a: vegetarian/vegan diet


Preparation Time: 5-10 minutes
Serves: 5


Ingredients:
-----------------------------------------------------

1 banana
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 3/4 cup (14 oz) almond/rice/soy milk (I use almond)
2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder


Instructions:
-----------------------------------------------------

Measure out the wet ingredients and pour into a large bowl. Add the dry ingredients. Mix well. Mash up the banana, (I put it in my blender) and add it to the mixture.

This recipe makes about 5 waffles with my waffle iron, (I use a little over 1/2 cup of batter for each waffle) but the yield will depend on how your iron is shaped. Cook each waffle until steam is no longer coming out the sides of the iron. (takes about 5 minutes).


Additional comments:
-----------------------------------------------------

I usually make a double batch of these at a time and freeze most of them. They're great reheated in the toaster. I got this recipe from an old Betty Crocker cookbook, but I obviously tweaked it to make it vegan.

Wow. That's a lot of oil. Have you tried using less? (I know waffles do better with SOME oil...)

Is it? I don't cook a lot. I thought I had this recipe memorized, but now you're making me think I'm not remembering it correctly. I know this is how I've made them for quite a while...

I'll try using less next time I make them and let you know how they turn out.

Can I use a mushy pear instead of banana? I'm going to try it that way....

I think the banana acts as a leavening (like egg), I'm not sure if it would come out perfect, but they might be good :) Let us know how they come out.
