The Greatest Waffle Recipe on Earth or Anywhere Else

The Greatest Waffle Recipe on Earth or Anywhere Else

This recipe produces the most crispy and delicious waffles I've ever had. It has been adapted from a recipe in J. Bennett's (2001) excellent Very Vegetarian, optimized for awesomeness and deliciousness. Candace and I were vegan when we originally developed this recipe, and so these waffles have no eggs or dairy.

Do this:

  1. Heat up the waffle iron
  2. Get a mixing bowl, ideally with a spout for pouring
  3. Mix the following in order:
    • 3 Tbsp egg replace with 3/4 cup water
    • 2 cups soy milk (+ maybe some yogurt)
    • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
    • 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
    • 1/2 cup white flour
    • 1 Tbsp baking powder
    • 2 or 3 Tbsp sugar
    • 1/2 Tbsp salt
    • vanilla (a fair amount 2 or 3 Tbsp)
    • a bunch of cinnamon
  4. Douse the waffle iron with spray oil, pour on the batter and let 'er rip

These waffles will take much longer to cook on the waffle iron than standard waffle batter. Do not trust the beeping noises your iron might make: pull the waffles out when you sense they've stopped steaming and you can just begin to smell they're done.
