Instructions

To begin, preheat the waffle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and pinch of salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil, non-dairy milk, and the vanilla extract. Add the wet to the dry ingredients and mix well, until most of the lumps are gone.
Spray waffle iron with cooking oil. Pour the recommended amount (amounts will vary depending on your waffle iron) of batter onto the hot waffle iron, and cook until the waffle is golden brown on both sides.
Serve immediately with desired toppings, such as fresh fruits and maple syrup.

Notes

Serving and Storing- Serve these waffles immediately with fresh fruit! You can also add vegan whipped cream, nut butter, or vegan chocolate sauce. Store leftover waffles in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator. You can also freeze them in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Gently reheat them in the oven or microwave to enjoy.

Recipe Tips:

Mix the dry ingredients together first. This ensures that all of the dry ingredients are well combined before cooking. When the dry ingredients are not mixed well it can result in an uneven rise and sometimes it can affect the flavor of the waffles.
Read the manufacturer's instructions on the waffle maker. Every waffle maker is slightly different so to get the best results make sure you follow the instructions on your waffle maker.
Allow the waffle maker to heat up before adding the waffle batter. It is important to allow the waffle maker to heat up before you add the batter. If the waffle batter is added to a cold waffle maker then they will become soggy and you don't want soggy waffles!
Wash and dry the fruit before serving. Washing the fruit will help to remove any excess dirt from the fruit. While drying the fruit will ensure that the waffles don't become soggy as a result of the excess water.

Troubleshooting

Why are my waffles sticking? There are many reasons why your waffles may stick to the waffle iron. Not having your waffle iron properly preheated or skipping the non-stick spray may be the reason why your waffles are sticking. Spray generously and add batter only to a preheated iron.

Why are my waffles soggy? If the iron is not hot then the waffles will be soggy and squishy. To avoid this make sure that the waffle iron heats up for at least 5 minutes before adding the batter to the pan.
