Combine ground flaxseed and 3 tablespoon of boiling hot water in a small bowl to make a flax egg. Mix well and set aside.
Combine almond milk and apple cider vinegar in a measuring cup, stir thoroughly, and set aside.
Add flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar to a medium-sized bowl and mix well.
Return to your almond milk mixture and add in oil, the flax mixture, and vanilla. Mix well.
Slowly pour your wet mixture over your dry ingredients. Stir until few lumps remain (but don’t overmix).
Cook the waffles according to your waffle maker’s instructions - my small waffles took 8 minutes per waffle.
Serve with fresh fruit, chocolate sauce, maple syrup or other toppings of your choice.
Notes
Use the step-by-step photos above as your visual guide.
This recipe has been tested using weight measurements (not cups). I recommend using weight measurements (both EU and US weights are stated in the recipe card). Cups vary in size and are thus considerably less exact.
If you prefer a sugar-free version, substitute sugar for stevia. Two tablespoons of sugar equal ½ teaspoon of powdered stevia extract.
Mix until all your ingredients are just combined, careful not to overmix.
Wait until your waffle maker is fully hot before adding your first batch.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days.
If serving later, make sure to toast your waffles just before serving.
