Vegan Whole Grain Waffles Minimalist Baker Recipes

So, that’s what I did. The result? Hearty, whole grain vegan waffles that just happen to pair perfectly with roasted stone fruit. Oooh yeah. The batter is simple and can be modified according to what you have. For sweetener I went the natural route: sucanat – natural cane sugar – and molasses. I loved how the sucanat had a caramel-like flavor, plus it’s healthier than standard table sugar when it comes to blood sugar spikes. And the molasses had me screaming for fall to arrive right this second. Molasses and fall go together like Bonnie and Clyde. I checked. These waffles may not be super crispy, but they are super tasty. Tons of whole grains make them healthy and provide some crunchy texture, and the sucanat and molasses keep them from being overly-sweet. And once you put a juicy, roasted, caramelized nectarine or peach on top, BAM, flavor explosion in the mouth. Don’t look at me – you have been warned. These gems make a perfect special morning meal for lazy weekends. Open up your windows, stream your favorite music, get flour all over your the kitchen floor and make these waffles. Is there anything better than that? I topped mine with a little almond butter, a roasted nectarine and a drizzle of maple syrup. So, stinkin’, good. The lone remaining waffle in my freezer is currently calling my name. Definitely making these again this fall, and you know what? You should, too.
