Naked Vegan Waffles

A few visitors have asked for a basic, easy, neutral vegan waffle recipe to accompany the more adventurous ones. While the creative part of my mind rebelled at first, I decided that several good "neutral" recipes are vital for waffle parties with a range of toppings. So without further fanfare, here is your very basic-but still delicious-vegan waffle, from The Global Vegan Waffle Cookbook.
Makes 4 (7-inch) round Belgian waffles.

Ingredients
  

  • cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • cups soymilk
  • ¼ cup canola oil
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar

Method
 

  1. Sift or whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
  2. Mix the soymilk, canola oil, and brown sugar in a medium bowl.
  3. Pour the soymilk mixture into the flour mixture and stir just until blended.
  4. Cook on a waffle iron for 3 to 5 minutes, generously spraying both grills with oil before each waffle.

Notes

If the first waffle seems a bit denser than you'd like, try adding up to an additional ¼ cup of water. You can also add another tablespoon of brown sugar or 1 to 2 tablespoons of molasses if you'd like them to be a bit darker and crispier.
