Suggestions

  • Swap almond milk for oat, dairy, or coconut milk.
  • Add-ins? Sure! Toss some blueberries, chia seeds, or chocolate chips into the batter.
  • Top with Greek yogurt, fresh berries, or a drizzle of honey for extra pizzazz.
  • For a protein punch, mix a scoop of your favorite protein powder into the batter.
  • If you like it extra crispy, leave it in the waffle maker for an extra minute. Risky, but worth it!
