Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 3 tbsp water
  • 200 g plain flour (I used gluten-free)
  • 210 ml unsweetened almond milk
  • 4 tbsp maple syrup
  • oil for greasing

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your waffle machine. Add 1 tablespoon chia seeds into a large mixing bowl and cover with 3 tablespoons water and stir. Allow to soak for 5-6 minutes (until an egg like texture).
  • Add the flour, maple syrup, and milk to the chia egg mixture. Mix it into a waffle batter.
  • Pour half of the mix into the greased waffle machine. Leave the lid open for 1 minute before closing it and allowing it to finish cooking.

Notes

Step-by-Step Photos: My blog post includes helpful step-by-step photos to help guide you through making this recipe.
Substitutions & Variations: I have included a list of these in the post above.
To Store: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. Reheat in the toaster or microwave.
To Freeze: Freeze in an airtight container or freezer baggie for up to three months. Reheat in the toaster or microwave.
Tip 1: Make sure to grease the waffle maker before cooking each waffle.
Tip 2: Don’t open the waffle maker once you close it until it’s ready. If your waffle machine doesn’t have an indicator, watch for the steam to stop. That’s generally a good clue that it’s ready.
Tip 3: I like to NOT put the waffle machine lid down straight away (I wait a minute), this gives the waffle a chance to cook a little first..
