Norwegian Waffles (Vafler) - Egg-Free

Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tbsp Sugar
• 2 tsp Baking powder
• 0.25 tsp Salt
• 0.5 cup Aquafaba (chickpea brine)
• 0.5 cup Melted butter
• 1.5 cups Milk
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract

Instructions

1. 1In a large bowl, whisk together the 1.5 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 0.25 teaspoon salt until well combined.
2. 2In a separate, clean bowl, whip the 0.5 cup aquafaba using an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. This means when you lift the beaters, the aquafaba should stand up straight and hold its shape.
3. 3Gently fold about one-third of the whipped aquafaba into the dry ingredients using a spatula to lighten the mixture. Then, carefully fold in the remaining whipped aquafaba until just combined, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
4. 4Add the 0.5 cup melted butter, 1.5 cups milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the batter. Mix with the spatula until everything is just combined into a smooth batter. Do not overmix.
5. 5Preheat your waffle iron. If your waffle iron has a temperature setting, set it to medium-high heat (around 375°F or 190°C). If it does not have a setting, turn it on and allow it to heat up for at least 5 minutes.
6. 6Carefully pour about 0.5 cup of batter onto the center of the preheated waffle iron for each waffle. Close the lid and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy. The exact time will depend on your waffle iron.
7. 7Carefully remove the cooked waffle from the iron using a fork or spatula and place it on a wire rack. Repeat with the remaining batter, cooking each waffle for 3 to 5 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
8. 8Serve the Norwegian waffles immediately with your favorite toppings.
