Ingredients

• 3 cups all–purpose or multi-grain flour

• 2 tbsp baking powder

• 3/4 tsp sea salt

• 2 1/2 cups non–dairy milk

• 1/3 cup orange juice

• 1/3 cup olive oil

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• Fresh fruit of choice (optional)

• Maple syrup (optional)

Method

First, preheat the waffle maker.

To prepare the batter, in a bowl, mix the dry ingredients — flour, baking powder, and salt.

In a separate bowl, mix the wet ingredients — non–dairy milk, orange juice, olive oil, and vanilla extract.

Next, combine the dry and wet mixtures. Do not overmix.

To cook the waffles, spray the preheated waffle iron with non–stick cooking spray and ladle in the batter. Close the lid and cook until golden brown.

Garnish with sliced seasonal fruit and maple syrup, if desired.

Time Saver Tip:

For sweet waffles, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of brown sugar. For savory waffles, use 1 tablespoon of brown sugar and if desired, add 1/2 cup sliced green onion and freshly–ground black pepper.

Any leftover batter can be made into waffles and then frozen for later use. To reheat, place in a preheated oven until they are completely heated through.
