Tips for Perfect Vegan Waffles
-
Crispier texture: Let the batter rest 5–10 minutes before cooking.
-
Fluffier waffles: Separate 1 tbsp of aquafaba (chickpea liquid) and fold it in whipped form for extra lift.
-
Make-ahead: Cook waffles in advance, freeze, and reheat in toaster for a quick breakfast.
